Yeah, they were quite common in the ’90ies. Don’t think they’re much worth.
Still a piece of history.
Low commercial value, thus Likely real.
No historical value.
Some people still have massive chunks in their basement.
The pieces sold to tourists got and get smaller with the decades – which is a cute symbolism for how that thing is history that is slowly breaking down and dissolving into the world.
it looks like the small souvenirs you can buy in Berlin in the “Checkpoint Charlie” museum, last time I was visiting i think it was 15€.
It never crossed my mind if those could be fake concrete rubble that they sell.
It is indeed possible to be a part of the wall. After the reunification the wall was broken down into smaller and bigger pieces.
They are sold as souvenirs in berlin shops. Bigger parts of the wall were giftet by the government to various people and institutions.
And if you were in Berlin at the right time, you could just take a part of it back with you.
I know a small village nearby that has a pretty big chunk of it, wich they took back with them on a schooltrip.

10 to 15 € . Its probably genuine. Can be found in basically EVERY souvenir shop in Berlin.
Nothing valuable in terms of money value.
Usually those souvenirs actually are real pieces. They cost a few euros and are worth less than that.
Worthless souvenir, the odds of being a genuine piece of the wall are pretty high.
Classic souvenir
Those were sold in ridiculous amounts for little money. My Dad got me one like 20/25 years ago.
Looked it up, they’re like 4€:
