Sightseeing

The Brandenburger Tor is the only remaining town gate in Berlin and is one of the most famous buildings and landmarks of the city. It used to be one of the most prominent symbols for the separation of the city. At this site thousands of people climbed the Wall on 9 November 1989 followed by the opening of the border crossings to West Berlin on that same night.
