The Brandenburg Gate is the most famous Berlin landmark. The gate is crowned by a sculpture called the Quadriga. This is a work designed by the sculptor Johann Gottfried Schadow. Until the fall of the Iron Curtain, it stood directly on the border between East and West Berlin and thus symbolized the meeting of the Warsaw Pact and NATO during the Cold War at the most sensitive point in world politics on their common border.

The Brandenburg Gate was built in 1789. The gate is the only surviving from last 18 Berlin city gates. The crowning sculpture of the Quadriga (four-in-hand) is particularly beautiful, a Berlin highlight.

The Brandenburg Gate has evolved from a memorial of division to a symbol of German unity. 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 created between 1788 and 1791 based on designs by Carl Gotthard Langhans the Elder, who was strongly inspired by the Propylaea of the Athenian Acropolis. King Friedrich Wilhelm II had previously ordered the construction of the Brandenburg Gate, as he was looking for a dignified architectural finish for the boulevard Unter den Linden.
