What To Expect

Brandenburg Gate (Pass By)

The Brandenburg Gate made of sandstone is one of the largest and most beautiful creations of German classicism. It was built in the years 1788 to 1791 based on designs by Carl Gotthard Langhans the Elder, who was strongly oriented towards the propylaea of the Athens Acropolis. King Friedrich Wilhelm II had previously ordered the construction of the Brandenburg Gate because he was looking for a worthy architectural conclusion for the boulevard Unter den Linden.

Reichstag/Bundestag

Significant turning points and events in German history are associated with the Reichstag building. On November 9, 1918, SPD politician Philipp Scheidemann called the Republic from the balcony on the west portal. The "Reichstag fire" occurred on the evening of February 27, 1933. The plenary hall and the dome were completely destroyed. A red flag of the Soviet Union, raised on April 30, 1945 by two Red Army soldiers, symbolized the victory over the "Third Reich".

German Chancellery

The 36-meter high "administration building" rises between and above the two five-story administrative wings, which houses the offices of the Chancellor and his Ministers of State, the cabinet room and conference rooms. A large arch is cut into the bare wall to the north and south, to the east (to the main entrance) and to the west the outer walls are broken up into large glass surfaces that span between high concrete pillars. This gives the large building an astonishing transparency and lightness. The two side wings, whose floor plans resemble a comb, appear completely different. The offices are grouped around atriums that are completely glazed. The long side walls with their alternation of windowless concrete walls and large glass surfaces appear compact and defiant.
