Your professional, local guide will walk you through the official Berlin Wall Memorial Site.

Learn about the East German Secret Police, the Stasi, and the psychological oppression they subjected the East German people to. Pay tribute to those who lost their lives attempting to cross the Wall, and visit the site of several underground tunnels used successfully by escapees.
