The church is located at the Breitscheidplatz, the center of former West-Berlin. This church locates close to the main railway station. It looks very unique, especially at night. The original church, built in the late 19th century, was almost completely destroyed during World War II (1939-1945).
The Kaiser-Wilhelm-Gedächtniskirche or Kaiser Wilhelm Memorial Church is one of Berlin’s most famous landmarks. The damaged tower is a symbol of Berlin’s resolve to rebuild the city after the war and a constant reminder of the destruction of war.
