Berlin - victory column
The Berlin victory column is located on the 17th of June Street in the borough of Tiergarten. It was built in 1873 as a monument to German victories in the wars against Denmark (1864), Austria (1866) and France (1870). There is a publicly accessible vantage point on the top. The golden woman represents the goddess Viktoria and is called Golden Else by the Berliners. Photos of berlin's inner city (click for more information): More information about Berlin: |
