Deutscher Dom

The cathedral was completely destroyed by fire in 1945, during World War II. Following German reunification, the cathedral was rebuilt (1993) and reopened (1996) as a museum of German political history.Located at the southern end of the Gendarmenmarkt, the Baroque-style church consists of a pentagonal structure with a classical portico, topped with a tall dome. Inside, the first three floors document the rise of democracy in Germany since the 1800s. An English audio guide is provided. The fourth and fifth floors host temporary exhibitions (with no audio guide).Below is a location map and aerial view of Deutscher Dom.
