The St. Agnes church, built from 1964 to 1967, is a former brutalist church designed by Werner Düttmann. Partially abandoned in the 2000s, it has been taken over by the König Gallery since 2015, which has turned it into a museum of contemporary art.
St. Agnes church, a prominent example of Brutalist architecture in Berlin-Kreuzberg, was built by Werner Düttmann in 1967. Renovated by Arno Brandlhuber, it now serves as KÖNIG GALERIE, an art space featuring interdisciplinary works.
The Holy Cross Church is a Protestant church which was built between 1885 and 1888 according to the plans of the master-builder Johannes Otzen under the supervision of Julius Kleinau. Destroyed by Allied air raids during the Second World War, the church was rebuilt in 1951-1959 in a simplified form.
The German cathedral built between 1780 and 1785 by Carl von Gontard in the Baroque style. It is located opposite the French cathedral, built in the same years as part of a project to redevelop the Gendarmenmarkt commissioned by Frederick II (1440-1472). Burned down during the Second World War, the German Cathedral was rebuilt between 1983 and 1996, and since then it has housed the exhibition on the history of the German Parliament.
