Brandenburger Tor

The Brandenburg Gate has become a symbol of German unity from the memorial of division. Its original purpose had nothing to do with politics.
The sandstone Brandenburg Gate is one of the largest and most beautiful creations of German classicism. It was built in the years 1788 to 1791 to designs by Carl Gotthard Langhans the Elder, which was strongly based on the Propylaea of ​​the Athenian Acropolis. King Frederick William II had previously ordered the construction of the Brandenburg Gate, as he sought a dignified architectural end to the boulevard Unter den Linden.

The monumental Brandenburg Gate can look back on a 200-year history. If it was a symbol of the division of Berlin and Germany until 1989, today it is a national symbol of unity and thus one of the city's most famous landmarks.

This monumental gate "Unter den Linden" stood for a long time unreachable between West and East. Since the turn it can be reached on the impressive street "Unter den Linden".

In the vicinity of the Brandenburg Gate, however, there is a lot of excitement, demonstrations, etc.
