Well done! (Besides the landmark, there are also other connections between the subject and 26A)

12ac and 8dn: The use of “in Germany” / “in the Pacific” seems to be accepted widely these days, but I can see no good reason not to include the word “here” before the relevant phrase in each clue.

5dn: For cricketing fans, to say “a bowler who throws” is a serious accusation of cheating. Perhaps “delivers” would be an acceptable and understandable alternative.
