Guided Story

Feel that soft breeze rustling through the leaves? There's something almost magical about the calm here. Look up at the striking towers reaching into the sky. Did you know this church was originally commissioned by King Frederick William III? He wanted to create a place reminiscent of Russian architecture as a tribute to his wife, Tsarina Alexandra. If you listen closely, you can almost hear echoes of the past. Behind you, a little further away, lies Peacock Island, another royal retreat. Imagine, back then, this was a private world, far removed from the hustle and bustle of Berlin.
