A tour visiting Berlin's City churches should start with protestant St. Marien, right next to the TV Tower at Alexanderplatz. Opposite to the city hall you will find Berlin's citizen church of the Middle Ages, that still is the see of the protestant bishop today.
You can hardly miss the protestant Berlin Cathedral (Berliner Dom), that resides in the 'Lustgarten'. Since the re-inauguration in 1993 the Berlin Cathedral is the main Protestant church of the German capital, if not of the Republic. A few steps away, behind the opera house Staatsoper Unter den Linden, you'll find the catholic St. Hedwig's Cathedral (St. Hedwigs-Kathedrale). The building, formerly in classicist style, was the first Catholic church in Berlin constructed after the reformation. It is the see of the archbishop of Berlin. At the beautiful Gendarmenmarkt the protestant / French Friedrichstadt Church (Französische Friedrichstadtkirche) is waiting for your visit. This baroque church of reformation times symbolizes the exile of the Huguenots, religious refugees from France who came to Berlin and Brandenburg around 1685. If you cross Potsdamer Platz you are getting to the protestant St. Mathew's Church (St. Matthäuskirche) at Kulturforum where the dialogue between church and arts is special importance.
A world famous sight in the western city around Kurfürstendamm and Zoologischer Garten is the protestant Kaiser Wilhelm Memorial Church (Kaiser-Wilhelm-Gedächtniskirche) with the symbolic power of tower ruins and new building. Within very little distance are the catholic churches St. Ludwig (St.-Ludwigs-Kirche) in Berlin-Wilmersdorf and St. Matthias in Schöneberg. Both Roman Catholic parish churches offer a great variety of church services that is - likewise to the other Berlin City Churches - known beyond Berlin's outskirts.
