Topography of Terror Documentation Center
Between 1933 and 1945, the central institutions of Nazi persecution and terror were located on the grounds of the present-day 'Topography of Terror', where nowadays various tours of this site provide the unique opportunity for a differentiated examination of Nazi policies of terror and their consequences up to the present. Since 1987 a permanent exhibition has informed the public about this historic site. After years of uncertain financial situation and public discussion a competition was held in 2006. The built proposal by Heinle, Wischer und Partner consists of a simple box-shaped structure which provides adequate and consigned space for an exhibition ground and conference rooms. Translucent metal grid-façades provide an open view of the historic surrounding with its cautious and dunning landscape architecture and calm internal courtyard.
