    If you register in advance, you have the opportunity to visit the former Rheinsberg nuclear power plant and take part in a guided tour (approx. 1.5 hours). A little tip: Register in good time - otherwise there is nothing left here!

      The “Bruno Leuschner” nuclear power plant (NPP) was the first of its kind in the GDR. It was built in the 50s with the help of the Soviet Union. The circumstances had a massive influence on the development of the region and the town of Rheinsberg. In the 1980s, resistance to the facility slowly developed among environmental movement groups. At the beginning of the 90s it was decided to stop operations. At that time, the dream was to “revert to greenfields” in order to do justice to the sensitive landscape protection area in which the nuclear power plant is located. As of November 2023, dismantling is still underway and is primarily focused on the radioactive components. You will certainly find out about the prospects of further dismantling during a tour of the facility. However, one thing is no longer under discussion: the green meadow. Partly for reasons of monument protection, partly due to a lack of willingness to continue spending money on dismantling the harmless components.
