The Topography of Terror, a new site of learning and remembrance, was built on the former site of the Nazi-era Gestapo and State Security Headquarters in central Berlin, and it now attracts over a million visitors each year. In this volume, Andreas Nachama, historian and director of the Topography of Terror Foundation from 1994 to 2019, shares his first personal encounters with the place and traces the evolution and establishment of the Topography of Terror, on which he closely worked from the 1980s. Architect and exhibition designer Ursula Wilms and landscape architect Heinz W. Hallmann present the design principles that guided their master plan uniting architecture, landscape, and the permanent exhibition space for the Topography of Terror. The volume includes original photographs by Friederike von Rauch, in which the artist conveys the atmosphere of the site shortly before its completion in 2010.

Architectural design can play a role in helping make the past present in meaningful ways when applied to preexisting buildings and places that carry notable and troubling pasts. In this comparative analysis, Rumiko Handa establishes the critical role architectural designs play in presenting difficult pasts by examining documentation centers on National Socialism in Germany. Presenting Difficult Pasts Through Architecture analyzes four centers – Cologne, Nuremberg, Berlin, and Munich – from the point of view of their shared intent to make the past present at National Socialists' perpetrator sites. Applying original frameworks, Handa considers what more architectural design could do toward meaningful representations and interpretations of difficult pasts. This book is a must-read for students, practitioners, and academics interested in how architectural design can participate in presenting the difficult pasts of historical places in meaningful ways.

The ?Topography of Terror? is a one of the most significant memorial sites of recent times. How is the past inscribed in the landscape? How do we regard a place that once housed the central instruments of terror of the Nazi regime? How has this no-man?s-land, once at the frontier of East and West, changed over time?00'Land?s End' features ten artists who photographed what is now the Topography of Terror site between 1981 und 2014, including John Gossage, Michael Schmidt and Joachim Brohm. The connection between photography and memory is obvious: photographs, like our memories, are drawn from reality, yet they convey a pictorial materiality all of their own. In their role as editors, Andreas Gehrke and Michael Disqué adopt an artistic approach to address the site, a place that was initially rendered unrecognizable by demolition and repurposing, rediscovered in the 1980s and embedded in the historical memory by the Topography of Terror Foundation.
