Just after German reunification 30 years ago, a fence whose days are numbered keeps Heinrich Staab, a villager in former West Germany, from herding his sheep into the East. On the old East German side, guards intent on preventing escapes once had to escort shepherds across the border. In a nearby valley known as Fulda Gap, a historic invasion route, American forces stood guard throughout the Cold War, watching for a Soviet attack—possibly aimed at cutting West Germany in two—that never came.

30 years ago today, on October 3, 1990, West and East Germany formally unified into one German state. The day is now known as “German Unity Day,” a public holiday celebrated with events like fireworks and festivals across the country.
