This is Dresden's famous Frauenkirche or Church of our Lady. The only Lutheran Church in the world that retained it's Roman name. This church has been the home for plays written by Wagner. It was devastated by Allied bombing in February 1945, but has been rebuilt for the cost of 118 million, 100 million coming from contributions. It is a fabulous structure. My few photos do not begin to do it justice.
Dresden is a gorgeous city, often called, Florence on the Elbe.
It has been raining every day since last Tuesday and there is flooding around us; we are fine but our day in Prague tomorrow may not happen.
