Скачать или смотреть Berlin Secrets: The hidden story of ´Adlershof´s bosom´

Adlershof, one of Berlin´s biggest technology parks, used to be for centuries the cradle of German aviation. It is much to be said about this history - and hopefully will share some more videos about it soon - whose episodes are spread all over the area. You just need to keep searching for it.

One of the less spectacular secret is the so-called ´Adlershof´s bosom´ or in the official German description, ´Kugellabore´. Nowadays tucked between office buildings, this brutalist construction was aimed by the then DDR government to be a secret laboratory for thermodynamic high-precision measurements. But the goal couldn´t be achieved for various technical reasons, therefore, it was further used until the 1990s as a normal laboratory, part of an institute where Angela Merkel used to work in her research years.
