Brandenburg Tor-3 * This triumphal arch was built in 1791, modelled after the Propylaea in Athens. It saw many armies marching under its arches - Prussian army, Napoleon army and Nazis all marched under, but later the GDR army misunderstood the meaning of the word Gate and made it part of the notorious Wall, forbidding free passing under the Quadriga. The Quadriga sculpture that crowns the gate was built in 1793 as a symbol of piece and was stolen by Napoleon in 1806 and taken to Paris, triumphally returned at its original place after the Battle of Waterloo and turned into a symbol of victory. * 3264 x 2448 * (2.08MB)
