Berlin - Fall of the Wall

People crowd in front of Schoeneberg town hall in West Berlin, 10 November 1989. The announciation of the Fall of the Wall was only done in a rather lapidary fashion at a press conference of the GDR leaders the evening before. The inner-German border which had parted the country since 1961 practically stopped existing. Not everyone welcomed the Fall of the Wall - some asked the West to Take the hands off the GDR'.
