"Germany is filled with historical, cultural and architectural landmarks, although many sites were damaged or destroyed during World War II." One famous natural landmark is the Neuschwanstein Castle. King Ludwig II was supposed to live here, but while the building was under construction he went insane. This building influenced Disney with the movie Sleeping Beauty. Neuschwanstein Castle is the most photographed sight in Germany. Another famous natural landmark is the Brandenburg Gate. This gate is also referred to as the “regal symbol of Berlin." It was created in the late 18th century. "The gate is the last remaining gate of a series of gates that connected the wall that once encircled Berlin." East and West Berlin got reunited due to the termination of the Berlin Wall in 1989. A third natural landmark is the Cologne Cathedral. This building took 6 centuries to finish in 1880. "On the list of UNESCO World Heritage sites, it is considered a masterpiece of Gothic architecture." The cathedral went through many bombings, but wasn't completely restored until 1956. The Cologne Cathedral is the most visited site in Germany.
