Image description

The body of the 18 year old East Berlin mason Peter Fechter is carried away by GDR border soldiers. Fechter was shot by East Berlin border soldiers at Berlin Wall during his escape attempt to West Berlin on 17th August 1962. The injured young man was lying almost one hour next to the wall before he died and was evacuated. From 13th August 1961, the day of the building of Berlin Wall, to the fall of Berlin Wall on 9th November 1989 Germany and the GDR were splitted by an Iron Curtain between west and east.
