re end of Spandau joint authority |

Line 3:
The intended governing body of Germany until it could run itself was called the [[Allied Control Council]]. The commanders-in-chief exercised supreme authority in their respective zones and acted in concert on questions affecting the whole country. The capital [[Berlin]], which lay in the Soviet sector, was also divided into four sectors.
Only two jointly-run four-power organizations survived the division of Germany. Both were in [[West Berlin]], [[Germany]], and existed during the [[Cold War]] from [[1948]] to [[1989]]. These were the [[Berlin Air Safety Center]] and [[Spandau Prison]] (which was demolished in [[1987]] when [[Rudolf Hess]], the sole remaining prisoner, died).
