This is so pretty! I love classic European architecture. And I actually like the green a lot.

I'm not sure if it's the locations, or the age of the buildings, the fact that a number of them are in hospitals of some type, or coincidence, but I've been noticing on the stairs in a lot of these buildings, wide treads and low risers. (I notice stairs since as an amputee, stairs with steep inclines, high risers, are an absolute pain to climb. These look like ones that would not be a problem for me.)

Tiny windows into big rooms in hospitals were often dispensing windows to protect staff and medications. Just a thought.

I'll bet the banister was brass, not wood. Beautiful stairs.

The architectural style of this building is exactly like the place I stayed in Seitz.

Maybe the black and red tile color combination had something to do with the Nazification period of Germany during WWII? They liked to use that color combination a lot elsewhere and since this hospital is in Berlin it would stand to reason they may have gone through and redecorated the place with their favored color scheme. Just a thought/idea.

That was not an uncommon design mid 20th century for stairs to circumnavigate a tower like that . I remember seeing this mostly in schools and public buildings.

uncommon architecture is most wonderful. american buildings always have one set of stairs usually away behind a door to go up and down the building i like how all these stairs are on either sides of the building. very weird. and without railings also very unsafe
