Bernauer Strasse, on the border between the Berlin districts of Wedding and Mitte, was a focal point of German-German postwar history. The construction of the Berlin Wall and its consequences for the inhabitants of the divided city were experienced here in a particularly dramatic way.
The former border strip on Bernauer Strasse is now a central reminder of the division. This is where the last piece of the Berlin Wall is located, which is still preserved in its depth. The site, therefore, gives an impression of how the Berlin Wall was built up until the end of the 1980s. The memorial was inaugurated on August 13, 1998.
