History
The Berlin Wall, erected in 1961, divided East and West Berlin and became a potent symbol of Cold War tensions. The Stasi operated as East Germany’s secret police, deeply infiltrating society until reunification.
Conservation
Efforts are ongoing to preserve the remaining Wall sections and memorials, promoting awareness of past conflicts and fostering civic memory.
