On the 4th October 1969, the "VEB Kulturpark Berlin" was opened as the only permanent fairground in the GDR. After the reunification, it was privatized, modernized and continued as a leisure park "Spreepark Plänterwald". After years of trying to save the park, he had to November 2001 close its doors. Most attractions are still in the park today: the 45-meter-high Ferris wheel rotates squeaky in the wind, trees grow through the rails of the park railway, birds nest in the pillars of the roller coaster, the white waterway boats are dusty and full of cobwebs. It is a poetic place of decay, which has also been highly sought after in recent years for photo and filming. This DVD gives you the opportunity to visit the park again and be fascinated by the history of this incredible place. The Spreepark expert Christopher Flade leads the guided tour of Berlin's probably best-known Lost Place.
