The Frauenkirche, officially known as 'Church of Our Lady', is a historic Protestant church located in Dresden, Germany. Constructed between 1726 and 1743 by architect George Bähr, it features a stunning 91-meter high dome and is a prime example of Baroque architecture. The church was destroyed during WWII and remained a ruin until its reconstruction from 1994 to 2005. Today, it stands as a symbol of reconciliation and peace. Visitors can explore the church's beautiful interior, attend services, or enjoy concerts. The Frauenkirche is open daily from 10 AM to 6 PM, with free admission to the main church. Climbing the dome's viewing platform incurs a small fee. The site is accessible for people with disabilities, ensuring everyone can appreciate its historical significance.
