The Frauenkirche is a Lutheran church located in the heart of the old town of Dresden, Germany. The church was originally built in the 18th century, but was destroyed during the bombing of Dresden in World War II. The church remained in ruins for over 40 years until a restoration effort was undertaken in the 1990s.

The restoration of the Frauenkirche was a significant undertaking and involved the use of original plans and photographs to reconstruct the church as accurately as possible. The original stones were salvaged and used in the restoration process, and new stones were carved to match the original design.

Today, the Frauenkirche is a symbol of reconciliation and hope for the people of Dresden and beyond. Visitors can tour the church, which features a striking interior with intricate details and beautiful stained glass windows. The church also hosts concerts and events throughout the year, and is a popular destination for tourists from around the world.
