STORYLINE:
As Germany celebrates the 30th anniversary of the fall of the Berlin Wall on 9 November, the country also commemorates those who were arrested, injured or died as they tried to escape by tunnelling under the wall, swimming past it, climbing on it or flying over it.
At least 138 people died in the attempt.
A group of now retired Lutheran sisters who ran a hospital next to the Wall were often those who first came to help those who managed to escape to West Berlin.
Sister Brigitte Queisser walks slowly along the decaying remains of the Berlin Wall, its rusty rebar reinforcement exposed where the concrete has crumbled away.
The 77-year-old pauses to catch her breath, then opens a gate and steps from former democratic West Berlin into the former communist East.
Standing under an old linden tree, Sister Brigitte looks at the marble gravestones of her former companions.
"When the wall came, (…) here was a kind of no man's land with barbed wire barriers, and then the border path, where the police patrolled. And behind it was a barbed wire fence," she remembers.
The first iteration of the Berlin Wall was built in 1961, billed by East German leader Walter Ulbricht as an "anti-fascist protective wall" for his country's security, but in reality constructed to prevent the flow of its citizens to the West.
It stood for 28 years, until November 9, 1989, and was seen as the front line of the Cold War between the United States and Soviet Union.
"Family ties were simply cut, severed. I really felt that this was the worst thing," Sister Brigitte said.
The Lazarus deaconesses were right at the heart, their residence where they ran their clinic on Bernauer Strasse cut off from its adjacent cemetery by the Wall itself.
Unable to use their own graveyard after the wall was built, they had to use a different burial place in the West while the city was divided.
What today is now a simple step, was a monumental feat for people trying to escape East Berlin during the nearly three decades the wall divided the city.
Some attempts were meticulously planned for months, others brazen and spontaneous.
Many succeeded flawlessly, but as a deaconess of the Lutheran Lazarus Order, sister Brigitte knows of the results of those that didn't, as her order ran a wall-side clinic to provide immediate help to injured escapees and also take care of burying those killed in their attempts to find freedom.
Many of the sisters worked as nurses in the hospital. Sometimes they would become witnesses to the daredevil escapes from the windows of their hospital that overlooked the wall.
"We took care of everybody in our first-aid station who was somehow injured," remembers 84-year-old Sister Christa Hubner.
"Dead or alive, cut open, fractured, everything - we made sure they received first aid and also checked whether they had to be hospitalised."
Today, the aging community of deaconesses can again use their own cemetery and visit the graves of their deceased sisters.
"I often stood there, at the hospital, and thought, 'God, can you please take away this wall completely,'" Sister Brigitte says.
"And when the news broke on this very November 9th, it was like a kind of fulfilment, but at the same time it was also beyond comprehension."
