This small memorial to the Fall of the Berlin Wall is located at the Mizel Museum in Denver. The Mizel Museum seeks to educate about tolerance and Middle East issues. The museum also is involved with the Babi Yar Memorial(http://www.waymarking.com/waymarks/WM8ARV_Babi_Yar_Memorial_Park_Denver_CO ).

These are pieces of the actual Berlin Wall contributed by Captain and Mrs. Herbert Light, American Pan Am Pilot stationed in Berlin, Germany during the time the wall came down in November 1989.
