Berlin Radio Tower, East Germany, Special Stamp Booklet Issue

East Germany · 1979 · 20 Pfennig

This stamp features a detailed depiction of the iconic Berlin Radio Tower (Funkturm), a prominent landmark in West Berlin, as seen from an East German perspective. It was part of a special stamp booklet issued by Deutsche Post of the German Democratic Republic.

The Berlin Funkturm, though located in West Berlin, was a recognizable symbol of the divided city. Its inclusion on an East German stamp reflects a broader interest in depicting significant German landmarks, even those across the Iron Curtain, within the context of national identity.
