We saw Checkpoint Charlie in 1994, and at that point it had not yet been made into a museum, so we could imagine crossing the bridge as it was. I hope it's still the same and not "built up" - we were humbled by the image in its true state. There were still large pieces of the wall lying around, as if it had just been torn down.

(Report Problem)Much smaller than you would imagine...however standing in front of the small building, I could only imagine what my mother felt like looking at it from the East, prior to her escape to West Germany. The museum nearby is well worth the visit and tells the tales of many of the escapees and makes one think...
