Piece of the Berlin Wall

Own A Piece Of History From The Berlin Wall Era

Nothing symbolized the Cold War more vividly than the infamous Berlin Wall that bisected Germany’s capital city. It was a physical representation of the state tyranny employed by the Soviet Union’s “Iron Curtain” of Eastern Bloc nations aligned against the American-led forces of NATO. Construction on the concrete wall began in 1961 and effectively cut West Berlin off from East Berlin and the rest of East Germany. The grim barrier included guard towers, barbed wire, machine gun nests, anti-vehicle trenches, and beds of nails among other defenses. Propaganda form the Soviet-backed German Democratic Republic (GDR) hailed the wall as being erected by the will of the people and officially called it the “Anti-Fascist Protection Rampart.” West Berlin’s government officials referred to it simply as “Wall of Shame.” In 1987 when President Ronald Reagan stood before the wall and urged his Soviet counterpart Mikhail Gorbachev to “Tear down this wall!” the world cheered. In 1989 when the wall came tumbling down, the world cried tears of joy.
