# Victims of the Berlin Wall, 1961–1989

> Remembering the 140 people who were killed at the Berlin Wall or died in connection with the East German border regime between 1961 and 1989: their lives, the circumstances of their deaths, and where they died.

A memorial and reference site, part of Berlin Experiences (https://berlinexperiences.com/). Every profile is an original summary
of the biography published by the research project "The Victims at the Berlin Wall, 1961–1989" (Centre for
Contemporary History Potsdam and Berlin Wall Foundation, eds. Hans-Hermann Hertle and Maria Nooke) on Chronik der
Mauer, and every fact was checked against its source in several independent passes; where a profile also uses
other sources, they are listed on it with what they support. Each page has a plain
Markdown version at the same address ending in .md. The complete text of the site is at
