Cafe Moskau


Although it's no longer open to the public, the famed Cafe Moskau still stands on Karl Marx Allée. It was one of the top spots in the DDR, though not everyone could afford the high prices. The architectural design is somewhat dated, but I still like it somehow. For more signs, take a look at Signs, Signs.

    1. Restaurants like these were more for "visitors", but if you lived in the DDR and had the means, you could go there too.
