Remembering the Dresden bombing of 1945

The Frauenkirche might be Dresden’s most significant landmark. In 1945, it was severely damaged during the Allied air raids that took place on February 13 and 14, remaining a ruin long after the Second World War ended. After German reunification, it was rebuilt and has since become a symbol for reconciliation. Many of the donations used for its reconstruction came from countries that had been invaded by Nazi Germany. | DW Travel
