A new archive of East German punk has opened in Berlin. It documents the music, the art, and the little known persecution of punk rockers. The archive is located in a suitably down-beat area of the former East Berlin.

It’s unlikely you’ve heard of this district. So just to throw you a bone, here’s an outrageous clue. It sounds like the name of a delicious Japanese breadcrumb.

… and the answer is Pankow, a borough of Berlin, Germany and now the location of a new punk rock archives. Anchor Lisa Mullins finds out more from Reuters reporter Kalina Oroschakoff.
