Revolution, Fall of the Wall, Reunification

Germany in the tailwind of history

Even in retrospect, the events of 1989 and 1990 take everyone’s breath away. In 1989, civil protests in the GDR grew louder and louder, and the wave of emigration to the West became more and more violent until the Berlin Wall fell and the GDR regime imploded.

In 1990, the first free elections amounted to a vote for reunification, which was pushed through against great international opposition in difficult negotiations with the victorious powers of World War II.

The tour takes in key sites of the revolution, the fall of the Wall, and reunification, explaining both the lead-up to and the historical events of 1989 and 1990, right up to the dramatic hour of November 9, 1989.
