The 5 most iconic legal graffiti walls
<p>We have been curating a <a href="https://legal-walls.net/" rel="noopener ugc nofollow" target="_blank">directory of legal graffiti spots</a> for over 10 years now. Reminiscing about our journeys around the world, there are some places that clearly stood out. This is a tribute to the most iconic walls we know. Some have great importance to the graffiti culture and helped to shape today’s scene.</p>
<h1>1. 5pointz (Queens, NY)</h1>
<p>Curated by Meres One, <a href="https://legal-walls.net/wall/316" rel="noopener ugc nofollow" target="_blank">5pointz</a> was <em>the</em> mecca for graffiti artists. Its name is a reference to the 5 boroughs of New York, the birthplace of graffiti. It was the largest mural space in the US and possibly the world. Thousands of artworks were lost in 2013 when the building was <a href="https://www.nytimes.com/2017/04/09/nyregion/5pointz-graffiti-artists-whose-works-were-erased-will-get-day-in-court.html" rel="noopener ugc nofollow" target="_blank">whitewashed overnight</a>. It was torn down for good one year later.</p>

<h1>2. Mauerpark (Berlin)</h1>
<p>Not all of the famous Berlin wall has been demolished. Years after the German reunification, the remaining parts are official monuments. Some of it runs along the <a href="https://legal-walls.net/wall/265" rel="noopener ugc nofollow" target="_blank">Mauerpark</a>, which attracts huge crowds on weekends. The wall facing the park is free to paint. This is easily the most historically important graffiti spot you can find.</p>
