When the Nazis came to power, they used the Gate as their symbol. The Goddess Viktoria became Nike, goddess of victory. When Napoleon was beaten in 1814 Prussian General Ernst von Pfuel occupied Pais and took the Quadriga back to Berlin, the olive wreath was changed to an Iron Cross. This is Viktoria, the goddess of victory driving a Quadriga, a type of horse-drawn chariot.Īfter 1806, when Prussia was defeated at the Battle of Jena-Auerstedt, Napoleon stole the Quadriga and took it to Paris. This is rather like Admiralty Arch in London, the central roadway is reserved so that royal and important traffic is not delayed. The columns form five roadways, citizens originally were allowed to use only the outer two. The Brandenburg Gate has twelve columns, six on the entrance side and six on the exit. During the Cold War, the Reichstag was in West Berlin, and the Brandenburger Tor in East Berlin. Nearby to the north is the Reichstag building. It is the only remaining gate through which people used to enter Berlin.
