Asked by Wiki User

The Brandenburg Gate is 26 m high, 65.5 m wide and 11 m deep. It is made of sandstone and has 5 passage ways, of which the central passage is wider than the others and is flanked on either side by a gate house, each containing a statue of the Roman gods Mars and Minerva. The design of the gate is based upon the Acropolis in Athens.

The top of the gate is crowned by a roughly 5 m high copper statue of the winged goddess Victoria riding a chariot pulled by four horses (Quadriga).
