Typical Stalin-era architecture

"Under the Tiles" in the avenue Unter den Linden, Berlin's most prestigious street. Is very close to the Pariser Platz and the Brandenburg Gate, a short distance from the French embassies, British and American. It was built between 1949 and 1951 in a style typical of the Stalin era, to assert the power of the Soviets in the city. At this time the wall had not yet been built, it would be in 1961.

In East Germany, the Soviets retained a strong influence until 1989 and the fall of the wall.
