| Large military objects that the Allied Museum has received from the Western forces include a British "Hastings" airplane, a railroad car from the French military train, and the guardhouse of Checkpoint Charlie on Friedrichstrasse. They are exhibited in the Museum’s permanent collection and impressively illustrate the Western allies’ commitment to Berlin. Additional large objects from the collection cannot yet be exhibited for reasons of conservation. This will be possible only after the long-planned open-air hall has been completed and furnished.
Maintenance, storage and exhibition of the large objects is quite complex. For example, transporting these items, not exactly easy to handle, presents a major challenge. |
