Berlin - Brandenburg Gate - Germany :

Brandenburg Gate Berlin -- The Brandenburg Gate was commisioned by Friedrich Wilhelm II to represent peace. The Gate was designed by Karl Gotthard Langhans, the Court Superintendent of Buildings, and the main architectural design of this landmark hasn't changed since it was first constructed in 1791. Ironically the gate was incorporated into the Berlin wall during the years of Communist government. The Brandenburg gate is probably the most well-known landmark in Berlin, it now stands as a symbol of the reunification of the two sides of this great city.

Since the fall of the wall, the Brandenburger Gate has become the symbol of a reunified Berlin. The desolate area that Pariser Platz was during the cold war, is now completely redeveloped and has regained much of its 19th century grandeur.

The Brandenburg Gate, Berlin’s most famous landmark, is over 200 years old. Until 1989 it symbolized the division of Berlin and Germany; today it is a national symbol of unity.

The structure is the only remaining city gate in Berlin. Carl Gotthard Langhans, modeled it after the Propylaeum in Athens in 1789–91, making it the first significant example of Berlin classicism. Johann Gottfried Schadow, who created the facade ornamentation, also designed the “Quadriga,” the four-horsed chariot at the top. After the defeat of Napoleon, an iron cross designed by Friedrich Schinkel was added to the goddess of peace standing in the two-wheel chariot. The Brandenburg Gate was severely damaged in World War II and the Quadriga completely destroyed. In 1956 the structure was restored and in 1958 the Quadriga was recast from the original and again displayed.
