Ornate Brandenburg Gate lights
|
Spotted loads of these vintage looking columns and lanterns lighting the Pariser Platz located in front of the Brandenburg Gate in Berlin, Germany.
I don't think these are originals as they appear in photos from before the war but are not present afterwards when this whole area was a waste ground which was located in East Berlin.
Either they are very convincing replicas or they were stored somewhere by the GDR or were moved from somewhere else after the German Reunification and the area was redeveloped.
The Berlin Wall used to pass right behind the gate from 1961 to 1989.
