Berlin, November 6, 2011




Berlin Holocaust Memorial
Walking between the structures.
Today we toured Berlin.  The Memorial shown here was exceptionally moving.  Gray concrete structures of various heights and an uneven walkway created a feeling of unease as you walked through the memorial.




An original section of the wall.
The remains of the Berlin Wall are evident near Check Point Charlie.  A part of the wall was recreated in the East Side Gallery and artists were invited to paint sections of the wall.
