Memorial and education centre at the former Cottbus prison, documenting Nazi and SED-era political persecution
About menschenrechtszentrum-cottbus.de
Menschenrechtszentrum Cottbus e.V. runs the Gedenkstätte Zuchthaus Cottbus, a memorial at the former Cottbus prison (1860–2002) that documents political injustice under the Nazi regime and the SED dictatorship. Permanent and special exhibitions cover both dictatorships, with a focus on the biographies of people imprisoned there.
Visitors can explore the main building in the former Hafthaus I, the outdoor grounds and the cells. Guided tours include the former workshop of VEB Pentacon Dresden and two reconstructed GDR prisoner transport vehicles, and tours in plain or English language can be arranged. The memorial also offers educational programmes that use interactive methods and talks with contemporary witnesses.
The association was founded in October 2007 by former political prisoners of the GDR and has owned the former prison building since 2011. The memorial is open Tuesday to Friday 10–17 and Saturday and Sunday 13–18, and is closed on Mondays. In November 2026 it takes part in the theme weeks "Lebensentwürfe in Freiheit und Unfreiheit" with the AG Politische Bildung Cottbus.
Product: Guided tours, permanent and special exhibitions, and educational programmes at the Gedenkstätte Zuchthaus Cottbus memorial.
