The Dresdener Bank set up "container" banks in order to payout welcome money for GDR citizens; the Brandenburg Gate on the left in the background.

"Begrüßungsgeld (German: welcome money) was, from 1970 until 29 December 1989, a gift from the government of the Federal Republic of Germany (West Germany) to visitors from the German Democratic Republic (East Germany)." (Wikipedia: Begrüßungsgeld, retrieved 30 December 2009)
