A truly unique photo illustrative of how Halberstadt looked toward the end of the DDRs existence. The photo is shot in the city center. These days photos like this are on display at local museums. Many famous old timber buildings in the city looked like that at the time.

I am curious where the cut off track continuing straight into Johannesbrunnen used to lead. It does not match any lines that previously existed in Halberstadt, see the old map:

It is not shown on the 11.1971 system map either. And the 3-point Voigtei terminal is located a bit further down the line. Since there is a square behind the photographer, I am guessing these are remains of a former passing point, which existed here when the network was more diverse.

The location of the photo is incorrect. The photo was taken at the corner of Gröperstrasse, not at Düsterngraben. On this picture:

you can clearly see the current view of the location. The houses were modernized.
The line to Voigtei was rebuilt in 1991, so the cut track can be seen in the foreground.
Thanks for this great photo!

Please, use the tool 'Marker is misplaced? Suggest right coordinates' on the map. I'll then also correct the name of the street. It was and is not so clear (for me) where both streets ends and or begins.
But again, thank you for the compliment.
