Berlin Wall Segments

Berlin Wall Segments

Berlin


Tourist like to pose in front of these graffiti-festooned segments of the Berlin Wall set up along its original course outside the Potsdamer Platz train station entrance. Sadly, some can't resist the urge to deface the memorial with chewing gum. In between are explanatory texts about other Wall-related memorial sites.
