serves as the cathedral of the Archdiocese of Munich

The Frauenkirche is a Lutheran church that was originally built in 1743, but got destroyed during the Second World War. Fortunately, it got restored in 2005 and we can now admire its white stone carved in baroque style. One of the highlights is the orgue in the back of the nef. The details on the dozens of intricate characters and symbols is mesmerizing, all in gold and marble. The church's architecture is a mix of Baroque and Renaissance styles, with a distinctive dome that is visible from many parts of the city. It also features intricate stonework and a number of notable artworks and artifacts, including an organ that dates back to the 18th century. The Frauenkirche is not only an important religious and cultural site, but also a significant part of Germany's history and heritage.
