The East German government built the Berlin Wall in 1961 to prevent East Germans from fleeing to West Germany. The wall was a symbol of the Cold War and the Iron Curtain between the Soviet-controlled East and the capitalist West. The East German government feared that the mass exodus of its citizens to the West would lead to a destabilization of the East German economy and government.
