The Brandenburg Gate was built in Berlin, Germany, between 1788-1791. The Brandenburg Gate is a neoclassical triumphal arch, which has witnessed significant damage first in World War-II and in the post-war partition of Germany. However, it was restored and returned to its former glory in 2002. Till date it stands as a reminder of Germany’s and Europe’s turbulent past and serves as a symbol for unity and peace.
