St. John's Basilica

This mosque in Berlin is noted for its attractive architecture, which is based on Ottoman architecture of the 16th and 17th centuries. It is constructed on the grounds of the old Turkish cemetery, Germany's oldest burial ground for adherents of Islam. The mosque itself was built between 1999 and 2005.

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 Protestant Nikodemuskirche was built in 1912-1913 by Fritz Gottlob. It is a synthesis of neo-Renaissance and Art Nouveau elements, which already hint at the beginning of modernism. During an Allied air raid on 26 February 1945, the church burned down completely, but the church hall was spared. Reconstruction began in 1954. The Nikodemuskirche is a cultural church, with many concerts and exhibitions taking place in the premises and the choir.
