Nick and Rosemary's Blog: Sopron Picnic

Nick and Rosemary's Blog: Sopron Picnic: "20 years ago the 'Pan-European Picnic' was held on the Austrian-Hungarian border at Sopron to protest the Iron Curtain. During the picnic 600 East Germans used the opportunity to push through to the West, and significantly, were not shot at by Hungarian border guards. It was one of the main events which led to the fall of the Berlin wall."
