Nice place to visit but was a very cold day and the view was not so clear. Be prepared on the winter, because it's a very open and windy area. Excellent Musem. A lot of great exhibits in the Musem building. The exhibits in the American camp are interesting as well. I enjoyed seeing parts of the old border wall and the guard towers. For someone who was not there and was six when the easy fell it gives a good idea of what the border was like. Vielen Dank für die Stiftung die immer noch an diesem Museum kümmert und unterstützt! Wonderful museum of the overall post World War Two and Cold War eras! Very informative, both in German and English with a very factual presentation. This is a memorial point that every person should visit to understand the importance. Very well done and preserved for generations to see!

Very well done and preserved for generations to see! Great place to share with friends and family about our mission on the Inner German Border separating East and West German. This museum is dedicated to the contributions made first by the US Army's 14th and secondly by the 11th Armored Cavalry Regiments. The inner German border was not completely abandoned until 1 July 1990, exactly 45 years to the day since its establishment, and only three months before German reunification formally ended Germany's division. There is another museum, a short walk, or drive, that is built over high speed patrol road that was on the Soviet side. The only recommendations I can make are, more signage written in English and possibly a reduced price or complimentary entry for those who can show they served there. Most interesting place to visit! You can learn from German history and see lots of military material from the post-war era including a tank, helicopters and halftrack etc. Highly recommended to visit also the outdoor area with the remains of the ”antifasistische Schutzwall”. DDR was such a joke for a country eventhough the onces living there weren’t laughing. Citizens had to be locked in to prevent them to escape the madness! Very nice place if you like historical places especially military...also surrounded with great natural scenery. But difficult to get there if you don't have your own vehicle... I went there with my daughter when she was an exchange student in Eschwege Germany. If you have any interest in the Cold War, this place is a must! This former US base was right on the old border, through the middle of the base there was a red line with a warning sign- 50 meters from the border. The reason? Moving an armored vehicle over that line would be a provocation. One of the many fascinating details I learned visiting there. Interesting and touching place. We had a great guide Marc Meyer who was very friendly, patient and knew a lot! I absolutely enjoyed it.
