The construction of the berlin wall began on August 13,1961 as away of separating the three zones controlled by the Britain and America from the,zone controlled by the soviet union.

9 Berlin wall fact #1 The berlin wall was constructed as a way of preventing East Germans from entering West Germany.It was not a boundary for west germans wanting to enter thew east,who were able to do so by obtaining a permit several weeks I advance.

10 Fact #2 The westside of the wall was coverd in graffti the east side was not.The berlin wall was the capital of germany. The opening of the Hungary border earlier in the summer of 1989 diminished the importance of the wall. Those looking to travel west could safely escape through Hungary to Austria.

11 Fact#3 Those attempting to escape came up with several ingenious methods to get to West Germany, including digging tunnels under the wall, using hot air balloons, ultra-light airplanes, and sneaking through the sewer system that was in place before the wall was built . Citizens of East and West Germany could freely move across the border on November 9, 1989, and some celebrated by bashing down sections of the wall. Most of the wall was destroyed by Germany was officially reunited on October 3,
