The Dresden Frauenkirche, also known as the Church of Our Lady, is a Protestant-Lutheran church located in Dresden, Germany.0 It was destroyed during World War II by Allied forces, with over 600,000 incendiary bombs dropped on the city.

The church was severely damaged, and the GDR kept the ruins intact as a memorial against the war.

The external reconstruction of the church took place from 1946 to 1955, while the internal reconstruction, with its Art Nouveau elements, took place until today.

The church is considered the largest sandstone in the world and is the main building of Dresden Neumarkt.It was restored in 1962 and is open from 9 AM to 5 PM.
