A car crashed into the iconic Brandenburg Gate on Sunday, killing its driver, the Berlin police announced via Twitter.
The vehicle reached Unter den Linden boulevard and crashed into the world-famous Berlin monument around 11:30 p.m. (local time; 00:30 Greek time), he said.
“An investigation is underway to establish the identity of the driver and the circumstances of the incident,” police added.
THE German tabloid Bild published a photo of a black sedan whose front end has turned into a shapeless mass and reported that the area around the Gate was cordoned off by police, the Athens News Agency reports.
In the heart of the German capital, at the level of the border that once separated East from West Berlin, the Brandenburg Gate became a symbol of German unification.
