Itinerary

  1. Brandenburg Gate

    Passing by

    The Brandenburg Gate made of sandstone is one of the largest and most beautiful creations of German classicism.

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.
