Very nearly the same after around 115 years! The older lamppost was taller – it probably needed to illuminate more. And in the old photo you see a black metal attachment to the bottom of the wall. Since the doors are reset quite a distance I am assuming this is not a door stopper but a shit scraper, but probably officially called a show scraper (or in German, Schuhkratzer).
