Frauenkirche Dresden

            The Frauenkirche in Dresden (originally the Church of Our Lady - the name refers to St Mary) is a baroque Protestant-Lutheran church and the defining monumental building of Dresden's Neumarkt. It is considered a magnificent example of Protestant sacred architecture, has one of the largest stone church domes north of the Alps and is one of the largest sandstone buildings in the world.

After the Peaceful Revolution in the GDR, demolition work began in early 1993 and the reconstruction of the church building began in 1994. The work, which was completed in 2005, was mainly financed by sponsoring organisations and donors from all over the world, including the US "Friends of Dresden". On 30 October 2005, a dedication service and ceremony took place in the Frauenkirche. The memorial against war and violence has now become a symbol of reconciliation.

Die Frauenkirche in Dresden (ursprünglich Kirche Unserer Lieben Frau  – der Name bezieht sich auf die Heilige Maria) ist eine evangelisch-lutherische Kirche des Barock und der prägende Monumentalbau des Dresdner Neumarkts. Sie gilt als prachtvolles Zeugnis des protestantischen Sakralbaus, besitzt eine der größten steinernen Kirchenkuppeln nördlich der Alpen und gilt als einer der größten Sandsteinbauten der Welt.

Nach der Friedlichen Revolution in der DDR begannen Anfang 1993 die Enttrümmerung und ab 1994 der Wiederaufbau des Kirchbaus. Die 2005 abgeschlossenen Arbeiten wurden überwiegend von Fördervereinen und Spendern aus aller Welt finanziert, darunter den US-amerikanischen „Friends of Dresden“. Am 30. Oktober 2005 fand in der Frauenkirche ein Weihegottesdienst und Festakt statt. Aus dem Mahnmal gegen Krieg und Gewalt wurde nun ein Symbol der Versöhnung.
