High-rise structure becoming a museum for GDR history.
The city of Dresden is set to welcome a new museum and a relocated library, as announced during the annual press conference of the Municipal Libraries.
Arend Flemming, the library's director, revealed that the library will not be situated in the high-rise building, contrary to previous speculations. The exact location of the library is yet to be disclosed.
Meanwhile, the DDR Museum, a popular attraction in the city, has undergone significant changes. The museum's inventory has been auctioned off, and the museum itself has been dissolved. However, the DresdenBau and Projektierungsgesellschaft, the city's development and project management company, have plans to move the DDR Museum to a high-rise building at Albertplatz. The person behind this decision remains unidentified.
In a positive note, the new museum, whose name has not been revealed yet, is expected to open daily from 10 am to 7 pm. The museum's director, Simmel, anticipates more than 100,000 visitors per year. The entrance fee is expected to be similar to the current prices of the museum in Radebeul, where an adult ticket costs nine euros.
Unfortunately, there have been reports of break-ins and thefts in the Neustadt district over the weekend. The local authorities are working diligently to ensure the safety and security of the community.
Regine Töberich, an architect, has been employed by DresdenBau and Projektierungsgesellschaft to oversee the design of the new museum. More details about the project are expected to be unveiled in the coming weeks.
