Berolina

Berolina is the New Latin female personification of Berlin and the allegorical female figure symbolizing the city. One of the best-known portraits of Berolina is the statue that once stood in Alexanderplatz.
==Statue==

In 1871, emperor William I ordered an Berolina statue in Belle-Alliance-Platz (todays Mehringplatz), to glorify the homecoming victorious troops of the Franco-Prussian War.
Another statue was designed in 1889 by the sculptors Emil Hundrieser (1846–1911) and Michel Lock (1848–1898) as a decorative element for the state visit of King Umberto I of Italy.〔 The Berolina figure was produced in plaster and was placed on Potsdamer Platz. The statue of showed a woman with a crown of oak leaves. The inspiration allegedly was from a painting in the ''Rotes Rathaus'' city hall that featured cobbler's daughter Anna Sasse.
Later, in 1895, the gypsum figure by Hundrieser was copper-melted and unveiled in Alexanderplatz on December 17. Weighing five tonnes, it was placed in front of the site where Hermann Tietz erected his department store in 1904.
The statue was damaged in the barricade fights of the German Revolution of 1918–19. It had to be removed during the construction of the U5 underground line in 1927, but was set up again in 1933. The nearby ''Berolinahaus'', built in 1929–32 according to plans by Peter Behrens, was named after the statue. Finally dismantled on 26 August 1942, it was probably melted down in 1944 for war purposes.〔 A model is preserved at the Märkisches Museum.
In 2000, an association named "Wiedererstellung und Pflege der Berolina e.V." (''Recreation and Maintenance of Berolina eV'') was created with the aim to rebuild the statue.
