The problem there is not misreading or a literal interpretation of history but a literal interpretation of a wall falling. Since a few areas still have sections of the wall standing as historic pieces, art installations and similar, the Berlin Wall has not literally fallen so to speak, but we treat November 9th, 1989 as the fall of the wall, as the borders were opened, it ceased to fulfil its original purpose, and the 'Mauerspechte' created breaches in it as keepsakes, souvenirs and to open up alternative border crossings. As a result I answered the question with that date in mind as the one you meant - but given the direction the thread has turned, thought it best to remind you that literally speaking a different date could be called for.
