Good readers: last week I was in Munich and decided to seek out the
Munich Gaswerks, the sight used for the exterior shots of the Wonka
factory in the original film. Thought readers would be interested to
see what it looks like now. Onlythe gates and the clock tower are
unchanged.

Here's a pic from the front.

And here's a pic from the back -- where Wonka let the kids in.

For some reason Google maps doesn't bring up the precise location. So,
here's the link.
