Cold War and Fall of the Berlin Wall: East German official Günter Schabowski accidentally states in a live broadcast press conference that new rules for traveling from East Germany to West Germany will be put in effect "immediately". Late this evening, East Germany opens checkpoints in the Berlin Wall, allowing its citizens to travel freely to West Germany for the first time in decades. In the first week, travel visas will be issued to around 25% of the East German population. One of several significant events on 9 November in German history.

1989 destruction of the Berlin Wall

The Fall of the Berlin Wall and the fortified inner German border occurred immediately... without delay after a Politburo press conference on 9 November 1989 prematurely announced that East Germans could travel without restrictions after, in the decades before, hundreds had been killed by Border Troops of the German Democratic Republic when trying to sneak through the Iron Curtain.
