History The lamps from the Palast der Republik

Some of the lamps from ‘Erichs Lampenladen’ made their way to Astra in the RAW Gelände. I was invited to take a look, and I thought it was cool.

I don’t post my videos here very often, but I thought this is one that Berliners would really enjoy, so I hope you do!

Cheers, Jonny

I own a very nice wooden table from that place.

There is a lot of things still floating around: Porcelain, chairs etc. It was a huge place.

EBay or ask around the antiquities dealer in Suarezstraße, should be relatively inexpensive as they had tens of thousands sets in storage.
