The Dresden Frauenkirche is one of structures that you have immediately on your mind when you think about that city on the Elbe River. I still remember how on TV they always asked for donations to rebuild the church when I was younger. After the Frauenkirche was totally destroyed in the Second World War, the GDR regime decided to keep the ruins as a memorial. Finally, in 1994 Dresden begun to rebuild the church for more than 10 years and I was even more happy now that I was finally able to visit this place. The interior of the Dresden Frauenkirche is very different from what I know of other churches. Much lighter, very friendly and kept in pastel colors. That results in a great contrast of the colors to the golden altarpiece and organ. ___________________ All rights reserved ___________________ More about this image here
