This document discusses the history and legacy of the Berlin Wall from its construction in 1961 until its fall in 1989. It explores how the wall physically divided East and West Berlin, creating separate worlds on either side, but also had a profound symbolic and emotional impact by separating families and lives. The wall's architecture came to represent the despair of division, but also now stands as a memory and reminder of how the city was once split in two very different worlds that were reunited after the wall fell.
