{{quote|The Brandenburg Gate was built for King Frederick William II of Brandenburg in 1788. The Gate was designed to resemble the Greek Acropolis. The wide center passageway was used only for royal carriages. On top of the Gate, the Goddess of Victory rides a four-horsed chariot made of copper. The Brandenburg Gate became a very real reminder of the city's division between East and West Germany when its entryways were boarded up 1961. The ceremony opening the Gateway in 1989 marked the reunion of the two nations.|'''Pamphlet'''|Mario is Missing! (PC)}}
The '''{{wp|Brandenburg Gate}}''' is a monument in [[Berlin]], {{wp|Germany}}.
