History You Can Hear: Telephone Tour of the Lindenstraße Memorial
This special telephone tour opens an acoustic access to one of the most impressive memorial places in Potsdam. On July 12, 2026, the Lindenstraße Memorial will lead through the history of political persecution, detention, and democratic renewal in the 20th century as part of By Phone Culture.
An exploration experience for all who want to experience history intensively
The tour lasts 60 minutes and is conducted by professional guides from the participating institution. It conveys visual content, spaces, and historical contexts in such a way that they come alive solely through listening. The telephone tour is particularly aimed at people who want to experience culture in a low-threshold, barrier-free, and location-independent way.
A place with a heavy past and great historical significance
The Lindenstraße Memorial is located in the former court and prison complex in downtown Potsdam. The place commemorates political persecution and violence during the Nazi dictatorship, in the Soviet occupation zone, and in the GDR. At the same time, it tells the story of the Peaceful Revolution of 1989/90 and the victory of democracy.
Audible paths through memory culture
By Phone Culture brings the tour directly to the phone and makes history accessible without digital hurdles. Questions are explicitly part of the format, giving the telephone city and cultural mediation a personal, dialogical character. This creates an intense exploration experience for all who want to rediscover local history and cultural heritage.
Arrival, orientation, and accessibility
The Lindenstraße Memorial is located at Lindenstraße 54 in 14467 Potsdam.
