Where in the world?

Maybe you know the monthly Sightseer Newsletter from Google. Martin always receives it and showed me the following question:

Can you find where this feature is in Google Earth?
Here are a few clues:

• This location can now be "viewed" from the "street" as part of a recent update.
• It is in the half of the world now experiencing increasingly longer days and shorter nights.
• The location was once home to a very important figure of WWII.

We knew the answer within 2 minutes. Do you too?
