Rossgarten Gate, City gate in Kaliningrad, Russia

The Rossgarten Gate features a single passage four meters wide with three casemates on each side, creating a symmetrical facade of seven openings.

Constructed between 1852 and 1855 under Wilhelm Sturmer's supervision, this gate replaced an earlier 17th-century structure in the Rossgarten district of Königsberg.

The gate displays relief portraits of Prussian generals Gerhard von Scharnhorst and August Neidhardt von Gneisenau above the main entrance arch.

Located at the intersection of Chernyakhovskogo and Alexander Nevsky streets, the gate contains the Sunstone restaurant with dining options in its vaulted chamber.

The structure incorporates two high octagonal turrets and includes an observation deck offering views of Vasilevsky Square and the surrounding neighborhood.
