✋Hello! Today we will visit the remains of a Neo-Romanesque church from the end of the 19th century. Although the building it was severely damaged during World War II, it was decided to preserve the ruins as a memorial.

The Kaiser Wilhelm Memorial Church is a partially destroyed Protestant church located on Breitscheidplatz in Berlin. The church was built between 1891 and 1895 on the orders of Emperor Wilhelm II, who named it after his grandfather Emperor Wilhelm I. During World War II, the church was destroyed by a British RAF bombing raid in 1943. The once magnificent building was largely destroyed, with only part of the spire and the entrance hall surviving. Inside, visitors can explore the memorial hall, which houses exhibitions detailing the history of the church and the wider history of Berlin during the war. The floor and ceiling of the hall are decorated with mosaics depicting biblical scenes and historical events and figures. The bas-reliefs mainly illustrate scenes from biblical stories and scenes from the life of Emperor Wilhelm I. In 1961, a modern church complex was designed around the ruins. The contrast between the ruins and the surrounding modern architecture serves as a poignant reminder of the impacts of war.

May happiness be with this place.
