The falling of the Berlin Wall...you can find pictures by just typing 'falling of Berlin Wall' at Google and there are a ton of them. It also helps to know the history behind the wall and what it represented to so many people, not only in Germany but around the world. There were families that were separated for almost fifty years just because some political powers said that Germany needed to be split between the Russians and the Allies, particularly Berlin. I had the chance to actually see the Berlin Wall when I was very young, seems strange now considering it's been gone for seventeen or so years. Good luck with your search.
