Welches Symbol ist im Plenarsaal des Deutschen Bundestages zu sehen?
- der Bundesadler
- die Fahne der Stadt Berlin
- der Reichsadler
- die Reichskrone
Why this is the correct answer
A large gilded representation of the Bundesadler — the federal eagle — hangs prominently behind the speaker's podium in the Bundestag's plenary chamber in Berlin. Germany's heraldic eagle has roots stretching back to the Holy Roman Empire and was readopted as the national symbol of the Federal Republic in 1950. Its presence in the chamber symbolises the continuity of German statehood under democratic governance.
