Berlin Tempelhof Airport (#2197)

A photo of the approximately 6 meter (over 19 feet) high eagle that once stood over the reception area; the photo was taken as the eagle was being dismantled. The very aggressive appearing eagle was a signature style of the airport and once included a swastika at the base. The swastikas were removed immediately after the end of WWII. (This photo is of a photo that is in a placard at the airport.)
