The border with West Berlin ran just a few meters from the entrance to the Church of Reconciliation. After the construction of the Berlin Wall, the neo-Gothic brick building from 1894 stood in the death strip - inaccessible to the congregation. In 1985, the GDR government ordered the church to be blown up. After the fall of the Berlin Wall, the congregation received the property back for sacred use. On November 9, 2000, the 11th anniversary of the fall of the Wall, a new place of worship was inaugurated.

You should plan a lot of time for the Mauerweg, but you will not get on with larger groups. But everything is shown very clearly.
