Description
"2009 is the 20th Anniversary of the fall of the Berlin Wall - a concrete wall, steeped in history. Little remains of The Wall that, for 28 years between 1961 and 1989, divided East & West Berlin, separating the communist East from West Germany. This one section has been anonymously daubed with graffiti, depicting the iconic Brandenburg Gate, which was the symbolic dividing line. At least 136 people died in vain attempts to escape the East and cross The Wall and to a new life in the West."
