Interview on Slow Travel Berlin (12.05.2015)


by Marcel Krueger.

The most interesting part of this project has always been trying to verify our research. We often started from a map, or websites or books, searching for relevant buildings or statues and then visiting the sites and hoping that things were still there.  Sometimes we’ve had only photos made by the soldiers to go on, and we have to try and match the place now to how it was then. Many times we found no traces at all, but other times we were lucky, discovering an abandoned statue in a forest…that was our reward.”

"A prima vista è difficile riconoscere i vari segni che la storia dell'Armata Rossa ha lasciato a Berlino e nella Germania dell'Est. Uno sguardo un po' più attento invece ne può trovare diversi. C'è sicuramente la statua di Lenin che in realtà era stata presa dai nazisti e doveva essere fusa".

"At first glance it is difficult to recognize the various signs that the history of the Red Army left in Berlin and East Germany. A look a bit 'more careful instead can find several ones. There is definitely a statue of Lenin actually had been taken by the Nazis and had to be merged. "
