The exhibition "Divided Memory" sheds light on the history of the division of Germany from the perspective of the district's history. It addresses questions about the spatial and social changes that were triggered by the events of 1961 and 1989.
How did the progressive expansion of the border installations influence life in the GDR? What opportunities and restrictions did the division bring with it for people in East and West, and how do today's residents of Treptow-Köpenick remember the Berlin Wall and its fall?
The Berlin Wall stood for 28 years. From August 13, 1961 to November 9, 1989, the Berlin Wall divided Berlin into East and West and completely enclosed West Berlin.
The construction and fall of the Wall are among the defining moments in world history and are at the same time closely linked to the history of the Treptow-Köpenick district.
The longest inner-city section of the wall ran here, stretching over 17 kilometers, along the border with Neukölln and Kreuzberg. The wall cut through residential areas, separated streets and traffic routes, and tore apart neighborhoods, friendships, and families.
