The green dome is seen first, which is also more special in European churches. The Berlin Cathedral, a Renaissance-style Protestant church built during the time of Emperor William II, is also a monument to the Hohenzollern dynasty. The location dates back to the 13th century. After the Hohenzollern family established Berlin as a family residence, they began to use the church as their religious service place and as a family member's graveyard. From the 16th century to the present, the church has undergone four reconstructions, from the Renaissance to the Gothic masonry, from the 18th century to the Baroque, and from the 19th century to the neoclassical, until the early 20th century, the new Renaissance, once and again with the aesthetic changes, unchanged, It was those souls who had been sleeping, who had witnessed the rebirth of the fire, who always felt that the masonry outside the church was slightly blackened, a mark of war. Life and death, victory and defeat of war are all human pursuit of greatness. At the end of the magnificent, life can be preserved in the language of architecture, statues and paintings, and texts, as if it is a continuation of human history. The front of the church is decorated with bronze statues, four statues in front of the main entrance, angels on the pillars, Christ in the middle, and eight angels playing instruments around the green dome, all officially recognized sculpture artists in the post-World War II reconstruction period. On both sides of the bronze statue of Christ are two lines of gold-plated characters, highlighting the power of doctrine: on the left, "I am with you forever until the end of another world; on the right, "Our faith is to win the wounded world." This may be the language that inspires survival in any dilemma, but hopefully the world will never hurt again. Despair over death has become an inspirational force, with generations of architects and sculptors doing their best to create the royal mausoleum and construct a space outside of life with imagination. Many great artworks are produced from ancient dynasty, and may not need commercial art, but can be more simply the pursuit of perfection. Art, as if more a process, works are the expression of the result. It is only during World War II that the roof of the church fell because of the burning, and was reborn again after bathing in the fire. It is said that many details of the reconstruction period have not been restored, and it is regrettable. The memorial hall of the earliest dynasty is said to have disappeared on the blueprint during the reconstruction period. Fortunately, All coffins were kept.

    Beautiful building, walking to the dome is feasible, with lots of flat places to catch your breath. We did everything in less than an hour, but it is recommended to book in advance.

    Through Marx-Engels Square, another magnificent church stands on the open grass, this is the Berlin Cathedral, in 1894, the German emperor demolished an old church, on this basis, the new cathedral with Renaissance style, due to the huge damage of World War II, It was not restored until 1993, and the restored church was simplified than the original design and decoration, so we didn't go in. The old museum building next to the cathedral is also very eye-catching, one of the beautiful neoclassical buildings. There are 18 Ionik pillars supported, the collection is mainly ancient German history and art.

    Berlin Cathedral is very worthwhile to visit, although admission is required, but I personally feel that this 7.5 Euro (as if, remember not quite clear...) The extraordinary value of the ticket flowers In the speech, let all stand up what (a word can not understand ), and the organ playing very good to listen to! ___________ Visits from floor to floor can climb up to the top and overlook the scenery of Berlin. If you are interested, you can buy some postcards of the Berlin Cathedral as a souvenir.
