"Contemporary Witnesses in Conversation" – Escape Helper Joachim Neumann

About this Event

Joachim Neumann, one of the most famous escape helpers and one of the most successful tunnel builders of all time, speaks in his lecture and the subsequent discussion about his tunnel constructions — the most well-known being “Tunnel 29” and “Tunnel 57,” both located on Bernauer Straße, which went down in history. In total, 99 people gained their freedom through the tunnels in which Joachim Neumann was involved. It was through his last project, “Tunnel 57,” that his future wife Christa also escaped.
