Video: Sound And Vision: Berlin Wall Fall

A nine-mile chain of lamps will light up along the former site of the Berlin Wall today ahead of the 25th anniversary of its fall.

The 8,000 lampposts will be topped by illuminated balloons that are set to be released on Sunday - a quarter of a century to the day since the wall began to come down.

The balloons will carry messages from the public with memories of the wall.

The Lichtgrenze - or light border - traces the former wall as accurately as possible past landmarks such as Brandenburg Gate, the Reichstag and Checkpoint Charlie.

However, new buildings have made it impossible to recreate the path perfectly.
