The Berlin Wall Memorial is the central memorial site of German
division, located in the middle of the capital. Situated at the
historic site on Bernauer Strasse, it will eventually extend along 1.4
kilometers of the former border strip. The memorial contains the last
piece of Berlin Wall with the preserved grounds behind it and is thus
able to convey an impression of how the border fortifications developed
until the end of the 1980s. The events that took place here together
with the preserved historical remnants and traces of border obstacles on
display help to make the history of Germany’s division comprehensible
to visitors.
