Guided Story

Can you feel the cool breeze coming through the tall windows? Look up and admire the stained glass. Each pane tells biblical stories, drawing you into a different era. This Gothic Revival masterpiece was created by Jürgen Kröger in 1908, during a time of rapid growth in Berlin. Now, if you glance to the right, there's the grand altar. It hasn't just hosted services, but also important social gatherings in the past. And listen to the silence—it’s occasionally filled with music from concerts, thanks to the incredible acoustics here. This place breathes history and yet feels so alive.
