Peace Demonstration in Bonn (October 10, 1981)

At the beginning of the 1980s, NATO’s Dual-Track Decision sparked fears of nuclear war in many European countries. On October 10, 1981, 250,000-300,000 people gathered in Bonn to protest the decision. Although the participants represented various political groups, they displayed a remarkable degree of solidarity and were determined to make the demonstration a peaceful one. Photo by Jochen Moll.
