The wall was firstly built in 656 BC. Then Emperor Qinshihuang order to build the wall massively during his reign. In later dynasties, especially during the Ming Dynasty (1368 to 1644 AD) the wall was expanded. However, the construction and expansion of the wall almost stopped during the Qing Dynasty.

Therefore, you can conclude that the construction ended in the Ming Dynasty. In total, the construction lasts more than 2000 years.
