Remembrance the fall of Berlin Wall about 24 years ago to benefit both sides of German peoples most. It's a history to remember

Probably it's not a must visit in Berlin, but if you are around or have time - come here, you will be deeply moved

Cas

Impressive as it is still original. If you want to visit it when its not so crowded , go after 4o' clock. Impressed by the way it still splits the city in 2.

Berlin Wall was built in 1961 and remained as a barrier untill 1989. It was dividing Berlin into two sides as West Berlin and East Berlin. Now it is covered with beautiful Graffitis Read more

You can feel here thrill of divided Berlin and touch of nazi's horror,as gestapo building was standing here at the time when Hitler ruled Germany .Occasionally this place hosts historical exhibitions .

Murat

Located close to other touristic attractions , 3min walk away from Charlie Check Point. Very nicely structured , but the stories and photos make you really sad, even depressed.

A must-see when visiting Berlin! Well maintained and gives a good experience of how it was like during the period.

This is the largest part of the remains of the Wall. Very interesting for a history buff such as myself.

David Hassellhoff, is huge in Germany . The Hoff performed his hit "Looking For Freedom" while standing on the Berlin Wall in 1989.

Michael Holdsworth

An excellent insight into and lesson on not only the wall, but the Nazi occupation as well .

Eloi Aldrovandi

Sad, obscure, dark and amazingly historical.

TIME

This 1962 TIME cover captured the mood of a newly partitioned city . "Seldom in history have blocks and mortar been so malevolently employed."

Britannica

5,000 East Germans managed to cross the Berlin Wall and reach West Berlin , while another 5,000 were captured by East German authoritiesand 191 more were killed during the actual crossing of the wall

Chilling to see. Very moving. Art transcends language. It's timeless and a must see.

Really nice monument to the wall, especially the outdoor bits.

Samantha Bronstein

It is semi accessible. Lots of history but to much pushing for it to be worth it for me.
