It weighs 3.5 tonnes and stands 3.6 metres high by nearly two metres wide; it once stood in Potsdamer Platz close to the Brandenburg Gate. It is the largest section of the Wall in Australia and was unveiled on 3 October 1992 by Dr. Roever, the then Minister-Counsellor and Deputy Head of the German Embassy. It is dedicated to peace and unity throughout the world.
