From 11.11.2024 to 21.01.2025, an exhibition on the Peaceful Revolution and Reunification in the districts of Bad Doberan and Rostock-Land will take place in the district administration building in Bad Doberan. Admission is free of charge.
This year marks the 35th anniversary of the fall of the Berlin Wall. Reason enough to take a look at the Peaceful Revolution of 1989 in the northern parts of what is now the district of Rostock.
From 11.11.2024, the exhibition "(Auf-)Brüche. Peaceful revolution and reunification in the districts of Bad Doberan and Rostock-Land" can be visited by interested parties at the Bad Doberan district administration during opening hours.
The exhibition is dedicated to the topic of the upheavals in the districts of Bad Doberan and Rostock-Land in the context of German and European developments.
Documents from the district archives, the private possessions of the people involved, as well as from the State Security, trace the tense events of late 1989 and 1990: from the first acts of opposition to the voting out of the SED government and German reunification.
Archival documents from the post-reunification period shed light on the difficulties and challenges that politics and society faced, and in some cases still face, with reunification.
To mark the opening, there will be a guided tour of the exhibition by the head of the district archive, Dr. Anselm Pell, on Monday 11.11.2024 at 5 pm. Registration is not required. The meeting point is the foyer of the Bad Doberan District House (House 1). Further guided tours are available on request.
The exhibition can be seen until 21.01.2025 during the opening hours of the district administration.
