Brandenburg Gate Berlin 1958
Description
Brandenburg Gate Berlin 1958; Photo; Licensed item; Original: 2880×2160; Photographer: Unknown;a0 Licensable; Rights: a9 Bleek/zb Media. The photo shows the Brandenburg Gate in Berlin in 1958, a symbol of division and the growing tensions between East and West.
Scene: The famous gate is still freely accessible, but the political border between East and West Berlin already runs nearby.
Cold War Tensions: After the Soviet Union’s Berlin ultimatum (1958), the border between the two halves of the city was more strictly controlled – a precursor to the construction of the Berlin Wall in 1961.
Military Presence: Possibly, East German People’s Police or Allied soldiers can be seen in the vicinity.
The photo captures a historic moment before Berlin’s final division – the Brandenburg Gate will soon become the central symbol of the Iron Curtain.
