It wasn’t a palace, a museum, or a tower. It wasn't even a "place". It was just a wall.
Yet for almost three decades, it held an entire city, and the world, hostage to fear, ideology, and division.
In this episode, we explore the story of the Berlin Wall: how a city became trapped inside itself, how a simple structure evolved into one of the most sophisticated borders ever built, and how, in the end, it fell not to force, but to the will of ordinary people.
A reflection on the power of architecture and the responsibility of those who shape it.
