Berlin Wall (East Side Gallery)

A well-maintained part of the Berlin Wall serves as a gallery with over 100 open-air paintings. It commemorates gaining of freedom.

The paintings are very emotional. They truly reflects the desire and need of freedom from the people of East Berlin. Families were separated. Trading and any communications were discontinued. People were unhappy and hoped for a better future.
