The European Parliament, the fall of the Berlin Wall and German reunification.
In the night from 9 to 10 November 1989, with absolutely no warning, the Berlin Wall opened at the same time as the communist government of the German Democratic Republic (GDR) collapsed. The Cold War was coming to an end and a momentous page was being turned in Europe’s history.
Despite the speed of events, the European Parliament played its role to the full, stepping up its efforts in response to these political developments.
See the virtual exhibition put together by the European Parliament archives unit.
