This was posted a while back (maybe more than once), but with 500 pages, it's hard to never repeat. Someone commented on the likely location.

Doesn't surprise me at all. Saw it last night on a KPBS show on post war Germany. Sometimes it is hard to search the gallery as not everyone writes the same discription, misspellings and with the same key words _________________ Prosit!

Yep. I only remember it because I commented about how all the engine lids were raised, as if it was a street-level workshop or junkyard, trying to get anything moving again.
I tried google image search and found this:

A ways down:
EDIT: Here is my post from earlier this year; comments indicated it had been posted before then, too.

And a different thread with the same photo from the same show in 2019:
https://www.thesamba.com/vw/forum/viewtopic.php?t=726885
Down the thread there is discussion the location.
