Awesome photo! And yes, one rarely ever sees damaged shots of the FHH.
It's amazing that - considering how "holy" and significant the FHH was to the NSDAP - it escaped relatively unscathed. I wonder if the building directly behind it was brought down intentionally, post war, as it's completely razed to the ground yet the FHH has almost no significant damage. I'd imagine that if a bomb hit brought that building down, it'd have done a bit more damage to the monument.
Here's a photo that Greg Walden's father took... You can clearly see the same damage to the rear left (our right) corner. It's funny, but I think this is the first time I have seen a "post war" photo of the FHH 'without' a bicycle parked in front of it
Greg, hope you don't mind me posting it. If so, just let me know and I'll have it removed.

I've been to Munich almost a dozen times now and it is one of my favorite cities in the world. I would "HIGHLY" recommend giving yourself a few days there to explore and enjoy
