Brandenburg Gate, Medieval city gate in Kaliningrad, Russia.

The Brandenburg Gate features two pointed passageways through thick brick walls, decorated with stone reliefs and stylized leaf patterns at its top.

Built in 1657 as a wooden structure, the gate was later reconstructed in brick under King Frederick II of Prussia's orders at the intersection near Brandenburg Castle.

The gate includes sculptures of Field Marshal Hermann von Boyen and Lieutenant-General Ernst von Aster, representing military figures from Prussian history.

Located on Bagration Street, this gate remains active for vehicle traffic and stands approximately 500 meters from the Southern Railway Station.

The structure houses the Marzipan Museum, where visitors can learn about the regional confection production and view miniature landmarks made from marzipan.
