The Berlin Blockade (June 24th, 1948 – May 12th, 1949) was one of the first major international crises of the Cold War. During the multinational occupation of post–World War II Germany, the Soviet Union blocked the Western Allies' railway, road and canal access to the sectors of Berlin under Western control.

The Western Allies organized the Berlin Airlift (German: Berliner Luftbrücke, or "Berlin Air Bridge"') from June 26th, 1948 to September 30th, 1949 to carry supplies to the people of West-Berlin.

The "Haus der Geschichte" features the history of this event in its post-WW II-section, showing the inside of a "Rosinenbomber", a Douglas C-54 Skymaster.

This image shows the interior of a historical military transport aircraft, specifically the cargo hold area. The curved metal ribs of the aircraft's frame create an arched ceiling over the cargo area. There are wooden crates and boxes securely placed within the cargo hold, likely representing supplies such as ammunition, equipment, or other military necessities based on the markings on the crates (like "20 AGB").

The floor of the cargo hold is metal, featuring tracks and tie-downs for securing cargo during flight. Several signs and informational panels are visible, suggesting that this image might have been taken in a museum setting designed to educate visitors about military history and aircraft operations. The inclusion of the historical photograph on the side of the interior further emphasizes the educational purpose of this setting.
