Brandenburger Tor

I feel gratitude and humility as soon as I not only stand in front of the Brandenburg Gate and linger for a moment, but can now also walk through it: "the door is open!"

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, a landmark of Berlin, should be visited early in the morning. if you want a little rest. to allow it to work on you.

The landmark with the Quadriga connects today again the east with the west of the city of Berlin.

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.

The Brandenburg Gate in Berlin is one of the most important landmarks of the metropolis. The only surviving city gate in Berlin, which used to stand for the division of the city into East and West, has been the symbol of the unity of Germany since the fall of the Berlin Wall. In addition, the sandstone building is one of the most beautiful examples of German classicism.visitberlin.de/de/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.

Naturally one of the highlights for every visitor to Berlin, and definitely a MUST.

Located on the former border, today it is a symbol of unification.

What should one tell a lot about this famous sight? It is simply part of every Berlin tour.

The landmark of Berlin. For me closely connected with the way to the Victory Column and the Hotel Adlon.

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". On the way there you happen u.a. the Alexander von Humboldt University and other historically and culturally valuable buildings. In the vicinity of the Brandenburg Gate, however, there is a lot of excitement, demonstrations, etc.

After heavy war damage, the gate was restored to 1958.
