Learn About the History of Espionage
Widely considered to be the second oldest trade in the world, espionage has had an undeniably gargantuan influence on the rise and fall of empires around the world. The Berlin Spy Museum (Deutsches Spionagemuseum) pays homage to this fascinating practice that has inspired generations of novels, films, and folk tales. There are more than 200 HD screens exhibited, many of which are touch screens, which allow you to experience various engaging means of espionage employed in the past. 3D glasses and projections are used to enhance the experience and shed light on the ancient art form.
Interact with the Exhibits in the Museum
Perhaps the most intriguing part of the museum is its large collection of interactive exhibits ranging from the modern password hacker to the enigma encoder used by the Nazis in World War II. Listen to tips and tricks spelt out by real agents and find out if you have what it takes to be a modern spy on the field. Discover what happens to all the information you post on social media platforms like Facebook with the enlightening ‘Facebook Puzzle’. Marvel at the extensive Berlin spy map that was once used by agents and assassins to carry out their missions in the ‘capital of spies’.
Give Your Kids a Unique Experience
The museum is also a great place for children to try out some of the spy games. Watch your kid attempt to find all the hidden bugs using a special detector, or give them an opportunity to undergo some fun agent training that involves dodging laser beams and decoding information written in invisible ink. Children can also look through seemingly benign magazine covers and newspapers that hide microdots containing information that is used by agents.
