The information sign in front of the wall segment reads as follows:
"An authentic section of the Berlin Wall, donated in April 1990 by the Berlin Wall Commemorative Group to President Reagan for his unwavering dedication to humanitarianism and freedom over communism throughout his presidency. This segment measures 3.5 feet by 10 feet and weighs approximately 8000 pounds."
Inside the library, there is also a replica of a segment of the Berlin Wall, which includes a cutout and an authentic piece of the wall inside the replica.
The full segment can be found by walking through the courtyard of the Reagan Presidential Library and out the back doors. The segment is located on the back lawn just outside the back doors.
