Product Description
Have a look at the place where Berlin, Germany, as well as the world was once devided. Get to know the history of the infamous “Berliner Mauer”; the construction, the improvements almost to perfection and also its downfall….
We’ll start at “Bernauer Straße” where in 1961 the residents jumped out of their windows before being evicted. See the sights where courageous students and their helpers were digging tunnels in order to be reunited with their families and friends on the other side of the wall. Listen to the stories of successful escape attempts, but also to the stories of those victims, who through death or capture were unable to fulfill their dreams of living a better life.
30 years have passed since the happiest day in German history. It was the 9th of November 1989 when the whole world witnessed the first little stone falling from the Berlin Wall. What was happening since then? Do “Wessis” (West Germans) and “Ossis” (East Germans) live in their reunified country happily ever after? How do we commemorate this momentous turning point in our history? Together we will find the answer to the first question almost every tourist who comes to Berlin has: “Where was the wall? I can’t find it!?”
The symbol of division wasn’t something we wanted to keep around to look at, but remnants still remain and a project was completed to make the former wall visible again without separating anyone! Are you curious? Come walk with me and discover Berlin!
