Wünsdorf 25 miles from Berlin, was established as a military area of the Imperial German and Prussian Army in 1871.
It became a city headquarter of the Nazi Wehrmacht and then the biggest Soviet military camp outside the USSR since April 20 1945. Quickly abandoned after the fall of the Berlin Wall in 1989, ‘Little Moscow’ was once home to 75,000 Soviet men, women and children and it was equipped with all comforts and facilities for the pleasure and relax of the army, including a theatre completely forgotten.
Even if in decay, the old Wünsdorf theater is still plenty of history.
