Topic: Historical Monuments of other nations in your country Posted: 09-Apr-2005 at 09:25 |
@Exarchus
as far as I know that's an Iranian (Sassanians?) castle, but it was half
destroyed and French built it up again centuries ago. I went there, and
the difference between the old part and the French one was an uneven
line of bricks, the difference was the type of bricks they used, and of
course French's were newer!

The GDR was never an own nation - their feeble attempt at becoming one at the end of the seventies (I believe) failed because of public reluctance to have "Nationalitt: DDR" written in their I.D.s
There are other (really) foreign monuments, however.

Monument for the Berlin Air Lift in Berlin-Tempelhof (there is an identical one near the Frankfurt airport)

Three mayor Soviet monuments and a British cemetery, also in Berlin.
Don't know if this qualifies:

Look like a french castle to me. As far as I know the castle was constructed by french archeologists by salvaging the material of an old ruin.
