    Tear Palace is the colloquial name for the former exit hall of the Friedrichstrasse border crossing point in the Mitte district of Berlin. From here, S-Bahn and U-Bahn trains ran to West Berlin and long-distance trains ran via West Berlin to the Federal Republic. The name Palace of Tears came about because GDR citizens often said goodbye to their Western visitors in tears here.
