1961-Berlin Wall Built

About after midnight on August 13 German soldiers and Construction workers quickly built a barrier consisting of concrete posts and barbed wire on the border of west and east Berlin. When the Berliners woke up they were stuck on whichever side they had previously fell asleep on. For nearly 30 years the Berliners were stuck behind the Berlin Wall.
