Very touching. I was 10 when the wall felt and it's the first historical event I remember. I always wanted to come here and touch it and give respect to all the humans beings involved in that situation at the time. Peace☮️ is always the right answer.

Iconic tourist attraction of war ruins separating East Germany and West Germany. Here, there are many tourists from many different countries, I'm Vietnamese, all kinds of old people, young people, singers, musicians, ... all fun and funny!

A nice historical place to stop by. well preserved wall graffitis and figures.
The Berlin Wall (German: Berliner Mauer, pronounced [bɛʁˌliːnɐ ˈmaʊ̯ɐ] (audio speaker iconlisten)) was a guarded concrete barrier that physically and ideologically divided Berlin from 1961 to 1989.[1] Construction of the wall was commenced by the German Democratic Republic (GDR, East Germany) on 13 August 1961. The Wall cut off West Berlin from surrounding East Germany, including East Berlin.[2] The barrier included guard towers placed along large concrete walls,[3] accompanied by a wide area (later known as the "death strip") that contained anti-vehicle trenches, beds of nails and other defenses. The Eastern Bloc portrayed the Wall as protecting its population from fascist elements conspiring to prevent the "will of the people" from building a socialist state in East Germany. #wall #art # history

You can't visit Berlin and take a look at this wall and his history. Today what's left of the week is full of nice art and murals. Definitely a must see.

Wall became a monument of sad history of Berlin. Now it turned into art gallery. Definitely worth visiting

A little underwhelming, though a few pieces in the evolving installation were really evocative. If you're looking for history and a sense of depth, strongly recommend the "Topography of Terror" outdoor exhibit (with a section of the wall) a bit west of here. Still, I enjoyed the walk and seeing the different art styles that were there this time, and I'd visit again in the future.

A piece of history that must be preserved to remind the next generations of the horror that took place here.
