VIW (Very Important Window).
The last original Checkpoint Charlie hut which was on the crossing point between East & West Berlin during the Cold War, on the junction of Friedrichstr. & Zimmerstr. West Berlin.
It was manned by the US, British & French forces.
Now found at the Allied Museum in Dahlem, Berlin (a recommended visit!).
Taken May 2018.
