Berlin, November 9th, 2026 (The Berlin Spectator) – In Nazi Germany, the November Pogroms took place 88 years ago, to the day.
Fifty-one years later, on November 9th, 1989, the unthinkable happened, but this time it was a very positive event.
Citizens from East Germany and West Germany walked right through it, from both directions.
This year, ahead of November 9th, Berlin’s Governing Mayor Kai Wegner stated, November 9th was a fateful day for Germany, one that was remembered again and again, especially in Berlin.
During a service at Berlin Cathedral, both the fall of the Berlin Wall and the November Pogroms will be commemorated.
