Germany: Berlin U-Bahn

On Tuesday I got four postcards: two from Indonesia and two from Germany. One of the cards from Germany comes from Berlin. I sent the card to me when I was there.

Berlin is the capital of Germany and of the German State of Berlin. Berlin was also the capital of Margraviate of Brandenburg, of the Kingdom of Prussia and of the German Reich and East Berlin was the capital of East Germany. Berlin is the largest city in Germany, the second largest city in the European Union and the fifth largest city in Europe.

The card shows the Berlin U-Bahn. The underground opened in 1902.


Stamp:
Janosch (from set of two) (issued 01-03-2013)
