On December 8th 1980 everything changed with the murder of John Lennon. The Crying Wall was then the obvious place for the outpouring of grief and protest against his death and almost overnight with the painting of his face and the old gravestone it becomes the John Lennon Wall.
The wall has been a victim of it’s own success with layer after layer of paint being added, parts of the wall fell down on their own.
Post 1990 the Knights of Malta actually gave their permission for the graffiti to continue but there have been many occasions when the wall has been damaged
There’s a lot more text than pictures on the John Lennon Wall today but it remains the only place in the city where graffiti is legal. .
