Germany: Brandenburg Gate in Potsdam

On Wednesday I got four postcards: two from Germany and two from the United Kingdom.

One of the cards from Germany shows the Brandenburg Gate in Potsdam. The Brandenburg Gate was built between 1770 and 1771 as symbol for Prussia's victory in the Seven Years' War. Originally it was a part of Potsdam's city wall, but since they were destroyed around 1900 it is a free-standing structure.
