Tour on the history of DAS MINSK
in Russian on MINSKDAY
Tickets 

November 24, 2024, 4 pm

As part of MINSKDAY, the tour provides an overview of the building's history in Russian.

This tour deals with the history of the building. Built in the 1970s in the modernist style of the GDR, the former terrace restaurant is a place laden with different memories. After its closure in 2000, vacancy and decline followed until 2018 when a debate about the fate of the building flared up again, ultimately leading to its reopening as an exhibition space. The tour offers insight into the creation of the restaurant, the time of the vacancy, the transformation into an exhibition space, and the interior design, as well as interventions and artworks in and around the building.
