St. Thomas-Kirche
Church in Friedrichshain-Kreuzberg, Germany, dating from 1869
The church St. Thomas (German: Thomaskirche) is a Protestant church in the Kreuzberg district of Berlin. Friedrich Adler designed and built the church between 1865 and 1869. The church was constructed in the shape of a Latin cross with two towers and a 56 metre high dome. Prior to the construction of the Berliner Dom, it was the largest church in Berlin with around 3,000 seats, and the congregation was one of the largest in Western Christendom. St. Thomas was partially damaged by an aerial bombardment on 22 November 1942. The church’s eastern gallery and choir windows were completely destroyed
