Kaiser Wilhelm Memorial Church ''Bombed but beautiful'' From the outside this momument looks spectacular. Bombed out, spire gone, all that raw masonry showing. It is very well highlighted with the coloured light which I hope are not just for the Christmas season. Inside - much the same as it was before WWII, pews, mosaic, altar, etc., and maybe that is... more

I visited this church, having seen the image of the church on German postage stamps when i was a teenager. I went into the new church and was bowled over by the blue glass. It provides a most religious quiet environment. I was sorry to miss an organ concert which was planned for lunchtime on the day when i was... more

This memorial is so brave - It went straight in to our hearts. The contrasts is also what makes the harmony - the remains of the old, bombed church - and the two new memorials in beautiful blue glass right beside it. We had to go back more than once and I would say Kaiser Wilhelm Memorial Church is one... more

While doing somevery early Christmas shopping in Berlin we chanced upon the Kaiser Wilhelm memorial church. We were immediately impressed. Its not often you would see a bombed out church preserved but this is typical Berlin. A fantastic momument. Go visit inside for free and also enter the new church nearby. This memorial is iconic Berlin. Looks great at night... more

It was really clever to use the remains of this bombed church as a memorial to the madness and destrucion of war.

Also the remains of the marble statues, mosaics and other parts of the interior gave a great impression of... more

'On our recent visit to Berlin we were struck by the defining impression this memorial leaves on the city. A bombed out church left as a symbol to the destruction of war - very poignant. It is best to visit it in conjunction with the ajoining new church where the striking contrast between the old and the new is most... more

you must visit this church, or whats left of it. From the outside it lookes damaged, and so it is, from the 2. world war. but the inside is so very beautiful, with "pictures" of the german royals in mosaik, extremly beautiful made. The new church next to the old, isnt pretty. But you should go, if only to se... more

We intended to visit the church during the day but ran out of time. We did manage to fit in a night visit before going for a meal nearby. In the dark it is a very striking symbol of the destruction of war as the huge hole through the middle really has impact. Inside the story is given great depth... more

The old chuch is impressive both inside and outside, but the blue interior of the new one is also worth seeing, while you go in and have a seat to enjoy such spiritual atmosphere. more
