Stasi Dokumentations- und Gedenkstätte Rostock

The former Stasi detention facility contains three floors with approximately 50 cells, featuring original furnishings and surveillance equipment from the East German era.

Between 1960 and 1989, this investigation detention center held more than 4,900 individuals under the control of East Germany's Ministry for State Security.

The documentation center presents exhibits, personal stories, and original documents that detail the methods of state control during the German Democratic Republic period.

The center opens from March through October, Tuesday to Friday between 10:00 and 18:00, and Saturday from 10:00 to 17:00, with free admission for visitors.

Each cell measures 7.5 square meters and contains glass blocks instead of windows, maintaining the authentic conditions prisoners experienced during their detention.
