May 12 - November 9, 2016 | Museum Barnim Panorama, Wandlitz

The exhibition ‘Waldsiedlung Wandlitz: A Landscape of Power’ was developed by the ZZF in collaboration with the municipality of Wandlitz und could be visited in Barnim-Panorama Wandlitz. It provided insights into the political style and lifestyle of the GDR’s leadership elite and documented the consequences for the region of the forest settlement and the security regime associated with it. Furthermore, on the grounds of the former Waldsiedlung, information shafts were erected, which provide information on the history of the Waldsiedlung, which was established from 1958 and used by the SED’s top functionaries until early 1990.
