After the end of WWII, Germany was “divided” into four occupation zones. The American zone, the British zone, the French zone and the Soviet zone. Berlin, the German capital, was also divided into four parts - despite the city laying deep in the Soviet zone. Signs like the one in the picture, written in all 3 languages spoken by Allied powers as well as in German for citizens, could be found on the borders of those zones.
