In 1992, the city of Berlin gave a segment of the Berlin wall to the city of Montreal for its 350th birthday. Today it stands on display in the Centre de Commerce mondial de Montréal. Many Montréalers do not realize that a piece of history is in our reach. When you plan to take a walk to Old Montreal, take the time to visit. An information panel is mounted discussing the events of the Berlin wall. When you do visit, you will be happy that you had a chance to experience history.
