Frauenkirche Dresden in Liberec

This church is a lot larger than it appears in pictures and is such a grand part of this market area. Going inside is free and in my opinion very worth it. Ive gone into many many churches in Europe and this one has a unique look to it that differs from most. It is rather bright and has pink features.

One of my bucket list at all time

No need to pay to enter. It is small and cozy. It is funny to find a donations machine wich accepts cards.

An amazing church , rebuilt in the early 2000s after being bombed to oblivion by the allies in ww2. Outstanding architecture. A must see in dresden

Like all buildings from Dresden, this wonderful cathedral has been completely rebuilded and finished 60 years after the bombing from 45. The baroque style respect every details from the old cathedral and it looks gorgeous. Do not miss to get inside, it is overwhelming.

Beautiful both inside&outside with its interesting history.

Beautiful church, it is worth going inside for a view (free entranceor going up the domeOnly 10€ to go up (5€ for studentsand have a 360-view on the city.Be careful, there are around 250 steps to go up the dome.

Its awesome.. Too many Germans even they dont know how much interesting is this building.. God bless that contractor ❤️✝️

Was seriously super pretty, didnt go up on the turm but yeah its amazing. Just doesnt seem like it serves the purpose of being a place to pray tbh lol

Impressing place. Nice emotional church, larger from the inside than the outside.The history is living in this place.Namely on the night of 13 feb 1945 it was the epicenter of the bomb raid that destroyed 70% of the city to ashes . Dresden was a train communication hub towards the East as well as a symbolic cultural historical center, pendant to Coventry.25000 deads minimum during these bombing raids just after Yalta agreements.Was left to rumbles during all the communist era.On the church square massive demos asking for more freedom happened just before the wall falling down.After die Wende, a large international subscrption was set up and then all the ruins and original stones were put on computer to be exactely reused and integrated in the new project.2005 the new church Frauenkirche was inaugurated

It’s one of the most beautiful churches I have ever seen! and impressive restoration work… Unquestionably one of the most important places to see in Dresden😍

The church looks stunning and its worth your time. A lot of planning really went into the architecture; the design is detailed. You can light a candle and say a prayer before leaving. As at the time of visiting, ascending the dome costs a little amount and there are souvenir shops closeby to get something as a memento of your visit.

Amazing architecture and beauty, on of the coolest constructions in Dresden. In Front of the church there is a big square here you can see lots of activities in summer and other seasons.

The Dresden Frauenkirche is a Lutheran church in Dresden, the capital of the German state of Saxony. An earlier church building was Catholic until it became Protestant during the Reformation. Destroyed during the Allied firebombing of Dresden the ruins acted as a war memorial until Unification when it was reconstructed.

Very beautiful interior and very high dome. Entrance is free, but for those who want to climb all the way to the lantern, there is extra admission.

A beautiful church with a history of reconstruction and reconciliationThis church stands on the site of an older church, but was first made in its present form in 1743, where its distinctive dome became a symbol of the city, immortalised in paintings. The church itself was utterly destroyed during the bombings of Dresden in 1945, but has since been reconstructed after the fall of Communism. Part of the funds and labour for the reconstruction were provided by people from the UK, as a symbol of reconciliation between former enemies. The interior is reconstructed in Baroque form, but looks very new indeed. It is a poignant memory of war and the desire to rebuild what is destroyed.

I went to church here. It is a Lutheran church? I dont know it was in German. There was a lot of people and they did a baptism when I was there. The preacher lady was good.

The FrauenKirche is like a phoenix that has risen from the ashes. It’s a magnificent piece of history, and a good place to ponder the ills and blessings of this world. Long have I wanted to visit this church, and I was not disappointed! It sits on the square as a star on the top of Christmas tree, it is a beacon of hope and of life to look forward to.

I really liked it, I will definitely come again

Auch a magnificent building! The interior is simply beautiful and the view from the top of the tower is fabulous! You can’t go to Dresden without visiting here

One of the magnificent and wonderful architecture you would find in Dresden is the Frauenkirche. I would suggest to get a free guided tour to understand the history behind. It was worth a visit.

Fortunate to have met the director, an amazing lady with an amazing story to tell.

Beautiful church thats been rebuilt, assend to the top for various wonderful view over Dresden

The inside is absolutely magnificent and such a beautiful sight, if you are staying in Dresden its a must see place. Also there are many restaurants around it too with very delicious food.

The Frauenkirche in Dresden is a beautiful church. This impressive building is very beautiful to look at from the outside and inside. We even had a guided tour with interesting information and backgroundsThe city that suffered the most from the destruction of World War II, demonstrates the strength of reconstruction and its beauties!

Just come back Dresden after 7 years! Today Dresden is quite quite!Frauenkirche is still charming and lovely in my eyes!

The building is beautiful, the story is very emotional.The staff... They look at you like you are a criminal if you walk around. If you try to take photos, that is by the way not prohibited, they expelled you from the world with their eyes.. The personnel there was terrible unfriendly and extreme rude.

Dresden is a beautiful place. At all season it’s beautiful. You can just roam around the city and it’s more beautiful by night.

Dresden is the first German city where I have visited. It was an interesting trip . Dresden is a new experience for me. It’s a city with interesting architecture, beautiful views and interesting places. I liked it so much .

Still the most beautiful church! Heard an incredible Haydn concert in the church. Fantastic experience!

Fantastic example of beauty from ashes. The inside is beautiful and ornate. Notice the original cross to the side of the altar. Pay to climb to the top of the dome for an incredible view of Dresden.

Beautiful building with lots of history, was a pleasure being able to see it and take in so much about Dresden.

A beautiful architect. One time visit.Can realax in the nearby benches having ice cream.

Beautiful church. My picture does not do it justice. It located in a nice lively square right in the middle of dresden. A must visit.

Fantastic murals. Spectacular architecture. Easiest ascension Ive ever made to a dome. Great views. Super square with lots of eateries, traditional or otherwise. Recommended.

A church dedicated to Our Lady (Kirche zu unser Liebfrauenwas first built in the 11th century in a Romanesque style, outside the city walls and surrounded by a graveyard. The Frauenkirche was the seat of an archpriest in the Meissen Diocese until the Reformation, when it became a Protestant church. This first Frauenkirche was torn down in 1727 and replaced by a new, larger church with a greater capacity. The Frauenkirche was re-built as a Lutheran (Protestantparish church by the citizenry. Even though Saxonys Prince-elector, Frederick August I, had converted to Catholicism to become King of Poland, he supported the construction which not only gave an impressive cupola to the Dresden townscape but also reassured the Saxonians that their ruler was not going to force the principle cuius regio, eius religio upon them.The original Baroque church was built between 1726 and 1743, and was designed by Dresdens city architect, George Bähr, who did not live to see the completion of his greatest work. Bährs distinctive design for the church captured the new spirit of the Protestant liturgy by placing the altar, pulpit, and baptismal font directly centre in view of the entire congregation.In 1736, famed organ maker Gottfried Silbermann built a three-manual, 43-stop instrument for the church. The organ was dedicated on 25 November and Johann Sebastian Bach gave a recital on the instrument on 1 December.

Lovely church. And the view of Dresden and the Christmas Markets was superb. There is a discount for seniors taking the elevator to the viewing area around the top of the dome. But you must be capable of walking down.

This is truly a stunning space. The church was destroyed after WWII but was left flyby the East Germans as a war memorial for many years. Only recently has it been renovated and the interior is amazing. Worth the tour to experience the hall.

Its beautiful from out side and inside. Take the chance to go also underground in it and check it from there. Its a must seen in your visit to Dresden :)

This is really unique place, with very strong and interesting history. Something mind blowing for me. Make a research before visiting Dresden and you will be amazed. Will not spoil the story so go ahead and explore the Dresden 😉.

While you may not think if Dresdon as a place to viait for a short break, think again its truly a great place with so musch to see, but id sugest getting a tour guide as there is so much ylu would miss unless pointed out to you.Highly recommend.

Dresden is a great City rebuilt after 2nd world war. If you are around Berlin or Prague, I would highly recommend you to visit this city.

Amazing Church! Beautiful inside and outside. Its interesting to point how some bricks are darker on the outside. This is because those were part of the original construction before the destruction on WW 2.

Absolutely beautiful church, entrance to the church is for free. There’s separate entrance to the roof for 8 EUR (unless you have student discountwhere you have nice views at Dresden from above. Frauenkirche was totally destroyed during bombings at the end of the WW2. There were no renovations during the communist regime. Rebuilding of Dresden started only in the 1990s. Britain, which led the bombing raids, has contributed more than one million euros in donations. About a third of the new building is made from the old, dark-colored stones that were left in the ruins. The rest are new stones. The total cost of the project came to 180 million euros.

Amazing church which has been rebuilt after the revitalization resurgence post Berlin Wall. Dresden was one of most bombed cities during destruction of WWII which devastated this huge cathedral. The outside brick work highlights the brick which was patched with old reused material salvaged from original structure (which is backand new material (which is white)... The huge courtyard area around cathedral typically always has shops or other dynamic entertainment.

Its the church in centre of Dresden that was completely destroyed by the allies in 1945 but pieced together in thousands of pieces after 1989 - perfectly. Utterly beautiful. The Christmas markets and the shops, museums, hotels and restaurants surround the church.

Such a cool church. It certainly has a unique look to it and characterizes the city in a beautiful way. The interior is extravagant and talking the walk to the top is so worth it. The top of the church provides the best panorama of Dresden available, too.

It’s very new having only been rebuilt after destruction in WW2 firestorm bombing in 2005. You can take a lift, stairs and spiral ramp up to the top to take in spectacular views of the city.

Frauenkirche (free entryis an interesting and important attraction at Neumarkt in Dresden. The church is open to visitors but with varying hours due to concert and worship services so best to check their website for exact times.Historically, Frauenkirche was a Roman Catholic Church prior to the Reformation period, when it was converted a Lutheran Church. The Baroque appearance of the building is that of the 18th century church, was completely destroyed during the Dresden bombings in WWII. That church was left in ruins for nearly 50 years and has only been fully rebuilt by 2005 after a decade of reconstruction efforts.Today, we can see the beautiful Frauenkirche once again. The exterior being that of the same and original Baroque architecture and design of builder Georg Bahr in the 1720s. It is decadent in appearance, featuring a large 96 metre tall dome which dominates the Dresden skyline.The interior of the church is nice as well. There is a circular nave layout, with several floors of seating, which lend well to musical performances that are often held at Frauenkirche. The alter and grand organ situated above are just magnificent. It is a beautiful sight, worth spending a few minutes to enjoy.In the end, Frauenkirche was the most interesting and impressive church attraction we visited during our short stay in Dresden. You can conveniently see Frauenkirche in 15-20 minutes, making this a convenient inclusion for sightseeing itineraries.
