Situated at the western end of the iconic Unter den Linden boulevard, Pariser Platz is a key symbol of Berlin's storied past. Established in 1732 under King Friedrich Wilhelm I and designed by Carl Gotthard Langhans in neoclassical style, it is home to the striking Brandenburg Gate on its western edge. After its destruction in World War II, the square was completely redeveloped by 2008.
