The Olympiaturm (Olympic Tower) and the Olympic Park with its stadium were built for the 1972 Summer Olympics.

The building’s transparent design was apprently inspired by soap-bubbles and dew-covered cobwebs, I don’t see cobwebs but the building is quite reflective, as can be seen by the “flares” of light. You can also have a look from the tower with the ‘Towercam‘.

The Berlin Victory Column (Siegessäule) was constructed to celebrate the military successes of Prussia over Denmark. In 1938 Hitler moved it from its place in front of the Reichstag to the centre of Tiergarten where it stands today.

The Victory Column stands at 61.5m high and is topped by the golden statue of the victory goddess Viktoria. In the column’s shadow you can make out shape of the goddess’s wings.

This is Castle Frankenstein near Darmstadt, Germany, where a notorious scientist named Konrad Dippel supposedly conducted experiments on human bodies… No wonder then, that some people believe Castle Frankenstein may have inspired Mary Shelly’s literary masterpiece, ‘Frankenstein‘.

Thanks to Jens Kilian and Nikopol.

This ’space-craft like’ building was designed to house ‘Space Centre‘, an interactive space exhibition. The centre closed last September, despite being open for less than a year.

You can also see what is apparently a “Ariane 44LP Orbital launch vehicle” to the West of the building, just beside its boosters.
