We were in the “Deutschlandmuseum” (German History Museum) — a museum where you can see the history of Germany from the battles against the Roman Empire up to the present day. There was also a room about the medieval period. In the background, knights were shown fighting each other, and harvesters were working in the fields.

Another important point was the invention of the printing press by Johannes Gutenberg, the Thirty Years’ War, and Martin Luther’s excommunication by the Pope after his 95 Theses. There were also some original objects, such as a flintlock rifle, and you could even print your own bookmark.

In another room, you could see a huge map of Germany with crank handles on the sides that allowed you to change the map to show different time periods. Then there was a replica of a World War I trench, followed by rooms themed around the “Golden Twenties,” where you could listen to music from that era.

Next came the period of the Nazi regime, with parts of original documentation, photographs, speeches, and statues showing the Hitler salute.

After that, we returned to the hotel, checked into our rooms, and went for a small walk before dinner. Afterwards, the plan for the week was presented, along with some small tasks.
