Шаблон:Location map The Шаблон:Lang (Berlin Wall Memorial) commemorates the division of Berlin by the Berlin Wall and the deaths that occurred there. The monument was created in 1998 by the Federal Republic of Germany and the Federal State of Berlin. It is located on Шаблон:Lang at the corner of Шаблон:Lang and includes a Chapel of Reconciliation, the Berlin Wall Documentation Centre, a Шаблон:Convert section of the former border, a window of remembrance and a visitor center.
History
The idea of a memorial was suggested by the Шаблон:Lang (German Historical Museum) on behalf of the federal government of Berlin, and architects Kohlhoff & Kohlhoff were commissioned to design it. The cost of the competition and completion was 2.2 million Marks. The federal government took over the construction costs, while the state covers the maintenance costs.[1] On 11 September 2008 the Berlin House of Representatives approved the opening of the memorial on the anniversary of the day that the Berlin Wall fell.[2]
By 2013, an extension was to be completed. Original relics of the border were to be shown, with missing parts marked in steel on the ground. The memorial was to be divided into four areas:[2]
- The wall and the Шаблон:Lang (death strip)
- Destruction of the city
- Building of the wall
- "Шаблон:Lang" ("It happened at the wall")
At the corner of Шаблон:Lang and Шаблон:Lang, a visitor centre was opened. The outdoor area of the memorial west of Шаблон:Lang was transformed into an Erinnerungslandschaft (memorial landscape).[2][3] In 2006 there were over 220,000 visitors to the documentation centre, which is part of the memorial.[4] Part of the memorial is located on Шаблон:Lang.[5]
Description
Original wall
The memorial includes a Шаблон:Convert long section of the wall as it was when the Wall fell.[6] Seen from the west, a wall built from L-elements was lined by a sandy section, a lighted Шаблон:Lang, a signal fence, and an inner wall. Finally a tower was built within the complex. The area is not accessible to visitors;[7] both ends of the original wall are closed by stainless steel.[6] The northern wall bears the inscription "Шаблон:Lang" ("In memory of the city's division from 13 August 1961 to 9 November 1989 and of the victims of communist tyranny").[8]
Documentation centre
The documentation centre is located on the other side of Bernauer Straße. It contains seminar rooms and exhibitions. The building includes a five-story observation tower.[4]
Chapel of Reconciliation
Шаблон:Main The Chapel of Reconciliation was designed by architects Peter Roth and Rudolph Sass as a church and is oval in shape with a façade of wooden rods. The chapel includes a prayer room and materials from the former Шаблон:Lang (reconciliation church), which stood on the site until it was destroyed in 1985 because it was inside the border strip.[9][10]
