Description:
Exterior view: Kielerstrasse, Berlin. This street was once in the death strip of the Berlin Wall Walk adjacent to the Spandauer Schifffahrtskanal. All buildings visible (mostly apartment buildings) have been erected since the demolition of the wall. The Gedenkstätte Günter Litfin (a memorial to Günter Litfin, the first person shot trying to cross The Wall, is sited immediately right of this viewpoint in a preserved old Watchtower built to guard the Wall. Part of a pedestrian trail that follows the old line of the Wall and includes two information centres, memorials and audio-visual information posts operational 24 hours a day.
