KGB Prison, Potsdam, Cold War detention facility in Potsdam, Germany.
The KGB Prison operates in a three-story building with 36 cells, containing preserved interrogation rooms and original prisoner inscriptions on cell walls.
From 1945 to 1991, this Soviet military prison detained both German civilians and Soviet personnel who faced trials before being sent to gulags.
The memorial site presents exhibitions about detention conditions, featuring personal artifacts, photographs, and documents that detail individual prisoner experiences.
Located at Leistikowstraße 1, the prison museum offers guided tours in multiple languages and maintains regular opening hours from Wednesday to Sunday.
The building retains its original 1950s prison structure, including cells where prisoners carved messages that remain visible on the concrete surfaces.
