Increible visitar el lugar, tienen un museo explicativo de entrada gratuita, y se puede ver el muro original como estaba en su época, con la torre de control. Muy recomendable
Hemos hecho una visita guiada y ayuda a entender qué significó el muro para los alemanes pero también para el resto del mundo.
Lugar emblemático, muy bien cuidado. Hay diferentes lugares donde explica un poco la historia del muro y datos importantes, las explicaciones están en alemán e inglés.
