    Since the end of 2022, the replica of one of the four entrance gates of the large stupa of Sanchi, one of the most important Buddhist monuments of ancient India, has been located on the Lustgarten side of the Humboldt Forum. The east gate, which depicts the "Berlin Sanchi Gate", was the main entrance to the stupa. In 1869/1870, British Lieutenant Henry Hardy Cole made a multi-component cast of the east gate of Sanchi on site in India at great expense for the South Kensington Museum in London (today the Victoria and Albert Museum). The South Kensington Museum made several copies in London and offered them for sale to European museums. Such a true-to-original plaster replica was purchased from London in 1886 by the Berlin Museum of Ethnology.

      The replica of an ancient Indian gate near the Humbolt Forum made of red Main sandstone has something mystical about it.
