East Germany used a unique design of Belisha beacon during the 1960s. Instead of a globe, the lamp sat in a black and yellow striped box which in turn sat on top of a yellow post. These were abolished in 1977, although use was continued on major roads until the fall of the Berlin Wall

In 1956 regulations allowed for Belisha beacons to be placed at zebra crossings. Unlike Belisha beacons elsewhere, these Belisha beacons had red and white striped posts with a white globe. These were abolished in 1964
