Museum of Lies
In the former Serkowitz Inn, one of the oldest inns in Lößnitz, visitors come across wonders and impossibilities. The Museum of Lies by artist Richard von Gigantikow is dedicated to truths and illusions that have no practical use. In a collection of things that do not exist, the exhibits play with the viewer's senses, challenge their general knowledge and allow them to become part of the staging. For example, visitors encounter the psychedelic Maschinka, who wants to discover the meaning of emptiness and nothingness and who caused the fall of the Berlin Wall during her first visit in 1989.
Many of the exhibits carry the spirit of resistance against the GDR regime, such as the Cathedral of Socialism, which thematises the lies of the pink light of GDR history.
The museum, which is unique in the world, sees itself as a constantly growing Gesamtkunstwerk that stimulates the imagination of visitors and contributes to cultural education.
Tip:
Immortal Elvis
A junk dealer talked the museum into buying a picture of Elvis. Smiling, he couldn't be killed. He can now continue to sing immortally in his wardrobe.
