Summary from Deutsch / German Wikipedia (dewiki)

Summary from English Wikipedia (enwiki)

The Tränenpalast (English: "Palace of Tears") is a former border crossing point between East and West Berlin, at Berlin Friedrichstraße station, which was in operation between 1962 and 1989. It is now a museum with exhibitions about Berlin during the Cold War period and about the process of German reunification. It was the border crossing for travelers on the S-Bahn, U-Bahn and trains going between East and West Germany. It was used only for westbound border crossings. It had separate checkpoints for West Berliners, West Germans, foreigners, diplomats, transit travelers and East Germans.

Summary from Français / French Wikipedia (frwiki)

Le Tränenpalast [ˈtʁɛːnənpaˌlast] ou palais des Larmes est le surnom donné, après la fermeture de la frontière et la construction du mur de Berlin, à l'un des principaux postes-frontières berlinois situé près de la gare terminus de Friedrichstraße, permettant ainsi le passage entre Berlin-Ouest et Berlin-Est. Le poste douanier, baptisé « Palais des Larmes » en raison des nombreux adieux qui s'y sont déroulés jusqu'en 1989, a été conservé.

Summary from Nederlands / Dutch Wikipedia (nlwiki)

Tränenpalast (Nederlands: tranenpaleis) is de bijnaam van de Ausreisehalle der Grenzübergangsstelle Bahnhof Friedrichstraße, een grenspost tussen Oost-Berlijn en West-Berlijn bij station Friedrichstraße tijdens de Duitse tweedeling.

Summary from Svenska / Swedish Wikipedia (svwiki)

Tränenpalast (tyska, översatt ungefär tårpalatset eller tårarnas palats) är en byggnad i Berlin vid järnvägsstationen Friedrichstrasse. Termen Tränenpalast kommer från de tårfyllda avsked som ägde rum i byggnaden mellan västerländska besökare och östtyska invånare som inte fick resa till Västberlin.
