What are area between the Berlin Wall?

The Death Strip was a fortified zone that ran along the inner German border, separating East and West Germany. It was established in 1952 and was expanded and reinforced over the years. The Death Strip was heavily patrolled by East German border guards and was designed to prevent people from escaping from East to West Germany.

The Death Strip consisted of a number of different elements:

* A concrete wall, which was up to 3.6 metres high and topped with barbed wire

* A minefield

* A strip of land that was covered with sharp objects, such as broken glass and nails

* Watchtowers, which were used by border guards to observe the Death Strip

* Searchlights, which were used to illuminate the Death Strip at night

The Death Strip was a very dangerous place. Hundreds of people were killed trying to escape from East to West Germany, and many more were injured. The most famous attempt to escape from the Death Strip was the tunnel dug by 29 East Germans in 1962. The tunnel was successful, and all 29 escapees made it to West Germany.

The Berlin Wall was demolished in 1989, and the Death Strip was dismantled soon after. The area between the former Berlin Wall is now a public space that is used for a variety of purposes, including parks, playgrounds, and memorials.
