One of the important cultural symbol of Germany, Brandenburg Gate is an important German landmark. It is located in Berlin. A former city gate, it was commissioned by King Frederick William II of Prussia and built by Carl Gotthard Langhans from 1788 to 1791

The German flag is a tricolor consisting of horizontal stripes of three colors- black, red, and gold. The flag was first designed in 1832. The black, red and gold color combination is a rendition of the uniform that the soldiers wore during the Napoleonic Wars.

Coat of Arms: One of the oldest state symbols in Europe, the coat of arms of Germany seems to have originated in the late eleventh century. The coat of arms portrays a black eagle on a yellow shield. The eagle stands as the symbol of the bird of the god named Odin, as per a Germanic tribe. The eagle also appears on the German one Euro and two Euro coins. The eagle designs were first made by artists from the Weimar period and the position of the wings and the shape has differed since then and has gone through several changes.
