The Berlin Wall symbolized an iron curtain.
The Iron Curtain fence stretched for thousands of kilometers to separate Eastern and Western countries, and it was especially strong in Germany, where the Berlin Wall became an unmistakable symbol of the Iron Curtain division. In certain regions, the Iron Curtain was nothing more than a plain chain link fence, when in other places it was a highly guarded area which only people carrying special government permissions could approach.

The Berlin Wall symbolized the division between East and West Germany and the larger ideological divide between communism and capitalism during the Cold War. It served as a physical barrier to prevent East Germans from fleeing to the West. Its fall in 1989 marked the end of the Cold War era and signaled the reunification of Germany.
