DDR Museum is a real time commitment — fit it in only if it's a priority.
Allow 1–1.5 hr.
It's interactive and fun — sit in a Trabant, open cupboards, peek into a re-created GDR flat — and great for getting kids and reluctant museum-goers engaged with history. The catch: it's small, gets packed and elbow-to-elbow, and serious history buffs find it light and a touch gimmicky for the price.
