This tour takes you along the Wall Memorial, starting at Nordbahnhof, a train station that had one exit in the East and another one in the West, and therefore was out of use while the Wall was up.
From there, follow your guide along the former death-strip where they will explain all the particulars of how the system of The Wall worked. Though The Wall zig-zagged all the way across the city, the ramifications and implications of the division were especially palpable here, at this particular location, as it was here that parts of a cemetery were removed, a church was being demolished, a whole bunch of streets were turned into dead-ends – and all because they all stood in the way of creating one of the most infamous structures of the 20th century.
This tour is a haunting experience, not for the faint-hearted, and a constant reminder of the terrible consequences of the fateful attempt to impose an ideology upon a whole nation.
