About

The moment the door opened, traces remained on the concrete walls as though they had been struck by a great storm. The reverberation spreading as an old metal door came loose seemed to be shouting that the voices of the past still remained here. The exhibition space, untouched by light, was filled with an atmosphere that seemed to hold on to its silence without end. This building, once built for military purposes, has today become an exhibition space that holds the wounds of war and human ambition, and visitors feel the weight of time seeping between its walls. The design drawings and records of the V-2 missile convey the past concisely, but the human faces and choices hidden within them still raise questions.
