The city district "Berlin Mitte" comprises the area of the old Berlin.
The walls of the fortress were already removed centuries ago. The
borders of Old Berlin are seen in the names of streets and squares. For
instance the Gate "Brandenburger Tor" was the customs duty gate in the
Western direction to the city of Brandenburg.
