The record

Parts of the Wall outside the Johanniter building at Rotter Bruch, in Germany's westernmost city.

The city is Aachen, which sits on the Belgian and Dutch borders at the far west of Germany — the opposite corner of the country from the line these pieces came from, and about as far as a German town can be from Berlin without leaving the state.

How did it get here?
