Some interesting Berlin detail here. This picture shows a Schleicher Condor over the Konigsplatz, with the Reichstag to the far lower right. At the Konigsplatz' centre is the Siegesaulle, with the Bismarckdenkmal directly in front of the Reichstag building, both of these were moved on the instructions of Albert Speer so construction could begin on the North-South Axis of the planned Welthauptstadt Germania reconstruction of this area. The siegesaulle and the memorial were moved to a purpose built roundabout in the Tiergarten, a Roman mile from the North-south Axis, where they can be seen to this day. The buildings either side of the parallel rows of trees were foreign embassies in what was known as the Diplomatik Quartier, the only foreign embassy that remains in that location is the Swiss Embassy, which was not moved during the war.

Directly below the Condor's tail, the long building with the white frontage is the Lehrterbanhof railway station, with the Moltkebrucke directly below that crossing the Spree River, which the Soviet armies crossed to begin their assault on the Reichstag in April 1945 and diagonally to the left of that, there is a low building with a tower frontage, this is the ULAP Exhibition Building that was seconded to become the Deutsches Luftfahrt Sammlung, the fabled Nazi aviation museum that housed the Dornier Do X flying boat as its centrepiece. Oddly enough, this very glider, named Fafnir as written at the bottom left of the image, was placed on display in the museum, to be destroyed when it was bombed in 1943.
