Unity Flag

The Unity Flag is a modern monument in Berlin-Mitte next to the Reichstag, standing about 6 meters tall with varying widths between 10 and 28.5 meters (33 and 94 feet). Its structure combines bronze, granite, steel, glass, concrete, and fabric elements to form a geometric artwork.

The monument was created to mark German reunification on October 3, 1990, the day East and West Germany became united again. Its location directly by the Reichstag symbolizes the central role of parliament in this historic national moment.

The inscription on this monument refers to German division and reunification, drawing people who wish to experience national moments together. It serves as a gathering place for memorial ceremonies and public meetings, where visitors can directly feel the significance of this location in German history.

The monument sits on Platz der Republik in Berlin-Mitte and remains accessible to visitors throughout the year. It is located right next to the Reichstag, making it easy to combine with a visit to the parliament building or a walk through the government district.

The flag was deliberately constructed using materials from both sides of the former border, making the physical connection between the once-divided parts of the country visible. This material combination turns each visit into a tangible reminder of reunification itself.
