Lessons Learned?

 

There is no end to remembrance and thus no line that can be drawn under our responsibility. Federal President Frank-Walter Steinmeier. Berlin, 29 January 2025.

 

The annual open-air and free history lesson at the heart of Berlin's government district, here from 2019, begins in late spring or summer and usually lasts until October 3rd, our National Day. The 30-minute light show/projection (which starts at dusk and is repeated several times until midnight) turns the Marie-Elisabeth-Lüders-Haus (MELH), one of the main parliamentary buildings, into a huge canvas. Every year the show is a little different but always focuses on German (parliamentary and general) history. Lessons learned or history repeating?
