Historical Monument turned into "Unknown Place"

Since this morning (May 15, 2025), a POI which was tagged as Historical Monument is now an unknown place.

It was called “Schöne Pforte” in Bamberg, Germany at 49°53’28.4"N 10°52’55.2"E
Pluscode: VVRJ+FQ Bamberg

Clicking this link, you can still see the camera icon on the map:

On Oct 28, 2023 I posted four photos, which are now hidden, until yesterday they were public. I do have the permalinks for those too.

Here is a link to a description published by “Stiftung Domstadt Bamberg”. So, the POI was not made up by some user of Google Maps.

Thanks @MortenCopenhagen I just posted it on Maps Support Forum and the post was rejected because of "Off topic :confused:

Meanwhile, I found out, at the same Plus-code is now a store. This might explain, why the previous POI was deleted.

Plus-codes are not unique so more places can share a plucs-code. And all photos and reviews seem relevant.

Maybe @NareshDarji would guide you in how to get this taken care of in the Maps Support Forum.

It appears that this place has been removed from the map. Maybe someone has reported.

This is certainly true, I know, @NareshDarji. But the historic portal still exists, even though a new store opened at the back of the building.
