Germany Siegessäule (eng: Victory Column), Berlin
In the heart of Tiergarten Park, the Siegessäule (Victory Column) with its golden statue is one of the city’s must-see sights.
From Brandenburg Gate, the broad boulevard Straße des 17. Juni leads west through the centre of Tiergarten Park. If you stroll down it for around twenty minutes, you reach a major intersection – a vast roundabout known as the Großer Stern. And right at the heart of the roundabout, you can find the Victory Column.

Photography Tips
Great spot for sunset when the column is lit up golden by the sun. Great for a wide-angle lens. Use the staircase of a nice point of view in your image.
A few steps away from the Victory Column, a staircase leads downwards. The photo was taken from there.
There is also a staircase behind the Victory Column, so it is also possible to take the photo from the back.
