Brandenburg Gate

At 26 meters tall, the Brandenburg Gate is the most famous historic landmark in the city and the only surviving city gate in Berlin. This Neoclassical gate was built in the late 1700 and marks the entrance to Unter den Linden. What makes it so special, you ask? The gate was a central place of protest during the division of Germany and a place of the huge celebration in 1989 when the Berlin Wall fell.

Brandenburg Gate is recognized in Hoptale's First-Time Visitor Guides as one of the top things to do in Berlin.
