Here's an interesting left-over from the days of Nazi Germany.

If you ever find yourself in Munich, here's something interesting to do. First, go to the Hofbrauhaus (always a good idea!), one of the most popular beer halls in Europe, if not the world. When you're there in the big main room, look at the light fixtures on the ceiling, and follow the cables/chains that attach them to the ceiling. Where the cables attach to the ceiling are the centers of what used to be a large swastikas, perhaps five or six feet in diameter. While the swastikas have been painted over in some decorative designs, they are still easily detectable if you know what you're looking for.

Unfortunately, I do not have any photos of this. I didn't know about the ceiling for the first few times I visited the Hofbrauhaus, but then someone mentioned something and I finally saw it. Interesting thing to check out the next time you go there.
