dc.description.abstractCities may be conceived as heritage as a whole, including past and present dynamic change. However, more commonly heritage tends to relate to specific artefacts or quarters of the city to which different values are attributed over time. For example, the Royal Palace in Warsaw, entirely reconstructed after the Second World War, but according to the then understanding of ‘history’, acquired a new symbolic value of resistance while losing its function of seat of power held by the monarchy, and in modern Warsaw it constitutes a new determinant element of the city structure. Similarly, the Brandenburg Gate which was erected in 1791 in the west of Berlin’s fiscal excise wall containing the city’s extension in the 1730s played many different roles. During the Second World War the Nazis used the Gate as a party symbol. It constituted a border gate between the two parts of divided Berlin during the cold war and became a symbolic passage during the fall of the wall. Now heavily renovated it stands for the new status of Berlin as capital of united Germany.
