Formerly symbol of division and the Cold War, one of the last remaining stretches of the Berlin Wall now has become symbol of unification and peace.
In one of those parts of Berlin where you can still see no-man's land which was there in times of the Wall, the Wall itself is still standing. Shortly after the 1989 revolution, it became a focal point for artists from around the world, who came here to embellish this part of the Wall with works of art. Before the Wall fell in 1989, it was also used as an opportunity for graffiti artists, or, indeed, anyone who wanted to leave a mark behind. This, however, was only allowed on the Western side, the Eastern side was the serious, formal grey of concrete and limestone.
