Berlin is full of beautiful churches. At every corner you will see a small charming church or a huge cathedral. Let’s discover the Top Churches of the city during this walking tour and see interesting sites along the way.
Start your unforgettable tour around the Gendarmenmarkt. Located in the historic center of Berlin, this square is considered the most beautiful in the city! Enter the Neue Kirche, also known as the German Cathedral, and admire its beauty. This baroque church is built on a pentagonal structure with a classicist portico, topped with a tall dome.
Visit the French Cathedral as well. Inconspicuous from the outside, it hides a real gem - a viewpoint. Climb 265 steps and get the outstanding view of the Gendarmenmarkt!
Walk around Bebelplatz which is considered to be one of the historically most important places in the city. On May 10, 1933, the action of burning books took place in the square, which began two months after Adolf Hitler came to power. More than 20,000 books considered by the authorities to be ""non-German"" were burned then. This event is commemorated by the Empty Library memorial.
Discover the marvelous Berlin Cathedral and admire its eclectic mix of Renaissance and Baroque styles. The church has 1,500 seats and is one of the largest in Berlin. Its beautiful architecture has inspired many architects.
Explore the gothic St. Mary's Church. See its incredibly beautiful interior and valuable baroque gems as a charming altar and a gothic bronze baptismal font from 1437.
Finally, stroll around the Alexanderplatz, named after the Tsar of Russia, Alexander I. Today, over 300,000 people pass through the square every day! Admire the Fernsehturm TV Tower, which is over 368 meters high.
