Team

The Berlin Wall Foundation's team includes roughly 60 permanent employees and almost 70 self-employed, freelance guides and educators who work at the foundation’s different sites. The work is organized into six departments and work areas.

The foundation’s work is supported by many people from science, society and politics serving on the foundation council and advisory board.
