From 1961 to 1989, tank traps stood between the Brandenburg Gate and Checkpoint Charlie. One is dedicated to the citizens of Potsdam, Germany, the sister city of Sioux Falls, South Dakota, where the Edict of Potsdam in 1685 first proclaimed religious freedom for Catholics, Protestants, and Jews. The other is dedicated to Air Force personnel at Ellsworth Air Force Base and all South Dakota military personnel who have faithfully stood in readiness to protect the free world in war and peace.
