Berlin's memorial church

The bombed church (Kaiser-Wilhelm-Gedaechtniskirche) wasn't rebuilt - but two outbuildings were added. The larger, towering one has wonderful blue glass -Lots of different shapes and colours in the panes -
The building is also used for concerts -And in the original part, the mosaics (1905 or so) survive -

Hello Mane.

I have seen this *church*, april 2008, while going to a trip to Berlin, whith a décoratrice friend. I like this building,
The contrast with the bombed old church is interesting. The blue glass beautifull.
In Berlin, a dream came throught, to see, Nafertiti.

Monday I live to Japan.
