What to do and see in Berlin, Germany: The Best Sacred & Religious Sites
Berlin is an edgy city, from its fashion to its architecture to its charged political history. The Berlin Wall is a sobering reminder of the hyper-charged postwar atmosphere, and yet the graffiti art that now covers its remnants has become symbolic of social progress. Check out the Weltzeituhr (world time) Clock, topped by a model of the solar system, then turn back time by dining at the historic Zur Letzten Instanz, a 16th century restaurant that was frequented by Napoleon and Beethoven.

The ruins of this famous landmark, damaged during World War II bombings, serve as a symbol of the destruction of war.

At famous Kurfürstendamm Avenue, at the center of Breitscheidplatz, and not far from iconic KaDeWe Department Store and the "Broken Chain" sculpture, you will find another landmark of Germany and Berlin: "Kaiser Wilhelm Memorial Church"! This Evangelical church, built in 1890 in the neo-romanesque style by German architect Franz Schwechten, was almost all destroyed by air bombings in 1943. A damaged spire was kept - to do not let us forget the horrors of World War II, as well as of any other war - and a beautiful new church was built on its side. Fantastic blue stained glass inlays, inspired on France's Cathedral of Chartres, create an atmosphere of peace, reflection and self-communion. Stop a minute, say a prayer, light a candle and devote this unique moment to all your beloved ones and to the memories of all those killed by infamous wars all over the world (and that unfortunately continue happening). "Kaiser Wilhelm Memorial Church" symbolizes the revival of a city and should not be missed. Enjoy!
