The first ‘peace lines’ were erected, following the outbreak of War also known as the 1969 “The Troubles”. They were built as temporary structures, meant to last only six months. Due to their effective nature they were built higher, longer and made permanent. Today, the walls are adorned with art and messages of hope from tourists.
