EDITORS COMMENTS
The Neue Wache (New Guard House) in central Berlin, a historic landmark dating back to 1816, stands proudly with its classical symmetry and grandeur. Originally constructed as a guardhouse for the troops of the Crown Prince of Prussia, this magnificent building has since been transformed into a poignant war memorial, dedicated to the fallen soldiers of Germany. The Neue Wache's pediment, adorned with intricate carvings and the Prussian crown, exudes an air of regal dignity. The symmetrical portico, supported by eight Doric columns, adds to the building's impressive and imposing presence. The frieze above the entrance bears the inscription "Für Verdienste um Vaterland, Für Tapferkeit, Für Treue" (For merit to the fatherland, For bravery, For loyalty). The Neue Wache has borne witness to significant moments in German history, including the German Revolution of 1918 and the fall of the Berlin Wall in 1989. It was officially converted into a war memorial in 1931, and since then, it has served as a powerful reminder of the sacrifices made by soldiers throughout history. The Neue Wache's enduring beauty and historical significance make it a must-see attraction for visitors to Berlin. Its neo-classical design, with its emphasis on symmetry and grandeur, continues to captivate and inspire, serving as a testament to the rich history and cultural heritage of Germany.
