The monument will say "We are the People" and "We are One People."
The monument will be shaped like a giant dish. The underside is to be adorned with images from the fall of the Berlin Wall in 1989.
The happy winners of the monument design contest: Sebastian Letz from the company Milla and Partner, and Sasha Waltz.
More than 500 potential designs were submitted in a contest to create the memorial.
The monument should be complete within the next three years.
