Men roof a hut beside a water tower

Silhouetted against a hazy sky, two men kneel and stand on the low roof of a wooden hut between two short chimneys and lay roofing, a third bending with a large sheet; behind them rises the round tank of a water tower on its tall shaft. The source describes workers putting the roof on one of the huts with the water tower in the background. In the Soviet zone the expellees were officially called resettlers, and many received land in the land reform of 1945.
