It’s Sunday! Which means it’s time for another spotlight from the Seattle Center Art Tour Presented by Alaska Airlines. This week we're checking out "Berlin Wall." This artwork is a three-ton portion of the wall that once divided Berlin, Germany, donated by German businessman Achim Becker in 1990. At 12.5 feet tall and 4 feet wide, it weighs about 8000 pounds. The Berlin Wall was erected in 1961 in the deep phase of the Cold War between East and West Germany, and was known as the “Iron Curtain”- the prison surrounding the 17 million people of East Germany. About 200 people were shot while trying to escape the terror regime. The Wall was destroyed by the peaceful German revolution in November 1989.
