    Any idea where this is? Thanks

    The Neue Wache (New Guard) on the Unter den Linden in Berlin, built in 1816 and became a war memorial in 1931. The building to the right is the Zeughaus (Arsenal), which is now a museum of history.
    Above info garnered from "Third Reich in Ruins".

          The photo you show us must have been made during WW2 because the two marbel monuments

          left and right of the Neue Wache have been walled in to protect them agains bombs.

          The statues showed the two Prussian Generals Gerhard von Scharnhorst and Friedrich Wilhem

          Bülow.

            Thank you Gerdan and Tom! Yes now that makes sense why the statue is in such great condition in this photo taken in 1945.
