Inscription: “In August, 1961, this infamous symbol of the Cold War was erected. In order to keep the East Germans from fleeing to the West, the Soviets built a wall between the East and West sectors of Berlin. For the next 28 years, the Cold War raged on and “Checkpoint Charlie” governed passage. The Wall stood as a harsh reminder of the chasm between the Non-Communist West and the Communist East. On November 9, 1989, the Wall was symbolically brought down. Only a few parts of the Wall remain. The Hard Rock Cafe is proud to display this piece of history that symbolizes the fall of oppression.”
