About This Item

Die Frauenkirche in Dresden (ursprünglich Kirche Unserer Lieben Frauen – der Name bezieht sich auf die Heilige Maria) ist eine evangelisch-lutherische Kirche des Barocks und der prägende Monumentalbau des Dresdner Neumarkts. Sie gilt als prachtvolles Zeugnis des protestantischen Sakralbaus und verfügt über eine der größten steinernen Kirchenkuppeln nördlich der Alpen.
Die Dresdner Frauenkirche wurde von 1726 bis 1743 nach einem Entwurf von George Bähr erbaut. Im Luftkrieg des Zweiten Weltkriegs wurde sie während der Luftangriffe auf Dresden in der Nacht vom 13. zum 14. Februar 1945 durch den in Dresden wütenden Feuersturm schwer beschädigt und stürzte am Morgen des 15. Februar ausgebrannt in sich zusammen.
In der DDR blieb ihre Ruine erhalten und diente als Mahnmal gegen Krieg und Zerstörung. Nach der Wende begann 1994 der 2005 abgeschlossene Wiederaufbau, den Fördervereine und Spender aus aller Welt finanzieren halfen.
Am 30. Oktober 2005 fand in der Frauenkirche ein Weihegottesdienst und Festakt statt. Aus dem Mahnmal gegen den Krieg soll nun ein Symbol der Versöhnung werden.

 

The Dresden Frauenkirche (German: Dresdner Frauenkirche, IPA: [ˈfʁaʊənˌkɪʁçə], Church of Our Lady) is a Lutheran church in Dresden, the capital of the German state of Saxony. Although the original church was Roman Catholic until it became Protestant during the Reformation, the current Baroque building was purposely built Protestant. It is considered an outstanding example of Protestant sacred architecture, featuring one of the largest domes in Europe.
The original Baroque church was built between 1726 and 1743, and was designed by Dresden's city architect, George Bähr. The church was destroyed in the bombing of Dresden during World War II.
The remaining ruins were left as a war memorial, following decisions of local East German leaders. The church was rebuilt after the reunification of Germany. The reconstruction of its exterior was completed in 2004 and its interior in 2005.
The church was reconsecrated on 30 October 2005 with festive services lasting through the Protestant observance of Reformation Day on 31 October. It now also serves as symbol of reconciliation between former warring enemies.
