No

Is that a Grade and a Protos on the picture?

Wendax · June 26, 2011, 06:40:48 AM

You're right with the Grade, but no Protos in the picture.

Is the event connected to Brandenburg?

Allemano · June 26, 2011, 07:21:10 AM

Is it a fountain or a sculpture/monument at the right side of the picture?

To narrow it down: From the north of Germany?

guido66 · June 26, 2011, 02:10:59 PM

Start or finish of a expedition?

If you divide Germany in two halves, the picture was taken in the Northern one. But you could call it central as well.

I wouldn't go as far as calling it an expedition, although it was more than a simple road trip. The picture was taken during the journey.

Allemano · June 26, 2011, 02:27:49 PM

Rather located in the eastern part of Germany?

Wendax · June 26, 2011, 02:29:49 PM

No

pnegyesi · June 26, 2011, 03:22:17 PM

did this event take place between 1925 and 1928?

Wendax · June 26, 2011, 03:33:54 PM

Yes

It´s the marketplace of Göttingen, where members of the "AKAKRAFT Huldigungsfahrt" are surrounded by spectators.

They were on the way to Ladenburg to celebrate the 40th anniversary of the first ever (Benz) car outing of 1886.

grobmotorix · June 30, 2011, 02:44:11 PM

In the same second...

Hey Otto, don´t remove it...

So this must have been in 1926.

You posted first. I didn't want to steal a point.
