Major Buildings in the German Democratic Republic 3rd Edition The Ministry of Posts and Telecommunications of the German Democratic Republic publishes six multicolored special postage stamps depicting significant buildings in the German Democratic Republic. 10 Pfennig value: German State Opera in Berlin From 1741 to 1743, the Prussian Court Opera was created under the direction of Georg Wenzeslaus von Knobelsdorff. The building was designed as a massive rectangular building. From a high base made of natural stone blocks rises the light pink plastered main floor. A balustrade stretches like a crowning around the whole structure and emphasizes the vertical of the window axes with their tall statues. The entrance side receives its festive effect through the front gable, which is supported by six Corinthian columns. He relaxes the massive building mass and brings the vertical to the building to advantage.
