The destruction of the Berlin Wall began, not as the result of anyone's order, but rather it was the result of the final breakdown of authority of the East German Government. The demolition of the wall could be said to have developed out of an international press conference which began in East Berlin on 9 November 1989. There had been massive demonstrations against political repression for months. As the peace conference ended, greater freedom of travel was announced for people of the German Democratic Republic. At midnight, the East German government allowed gates along the Wall to be opened after hundreds of people converged on crossing points. In the following weeks, many people then took to the wall with hammers and chisels, dismantling it piece by piece.
The official demolition of the Berlin wall began on 13 June 1990, and was undertaken by former East German border guards overseeing contractors, under a democratically elected government.
