On of three left standardized petrol stations.

Description

The triangular shape of the petrol station and its roof corresponds to the shape of the surrounding streets. However, the decision was made to close the boomerang-style roof, creating a more square roof to allow customers to fill up with more protection. Identical petrol stations have only survived in Wrocław (Poland) and Fürstenwalde (Germany).
