The Berlin Wall was the division between West Berlin and East Germany. The East German government built it to prevent its citizens from going to the West.
Putting it very simply: the Cold War partitioning of Berlin and the fact that many people in East Berlin were fleeing across the border to West Berlin and freedom. The communist government built the wall to prevent these people from fleeing.
It was build in East Berlin, by the East German government (presumably at the behest of the Soviet Union), on the East Geman side of the border between East and West Berlin. Its purpose was to prevent the escape of East German citizens to West Berlin.
The Berlin Wall was built by the Communist government of East Germany to stop East Berliners & East Germans from escaping to the free & democratic West Berlin. The East German government also built a series of razor-wire fences, guard posts, minefields, walls, ditches & vehicle obstacles to prevent East Germans from escaping from East Germany to West Germany.
The East German government with the support of the Soviet Union built the Berlin Wall to stop East German from defecting to the West.
