Friedrichswerder Church, Gothic Revival church museum in Mitte district, Berlin, Germany.

The Friedrichswerder Church features high windows that provide natural daylight illumination throughout its neo-Gothic nave with reticulated vaulted ceilings.

Karl Friedrich Schinkel created this church between 1824 and 1831, establishing Berlin's first neo-Gothic religious building based on English chapel architectural elements.

The museum displays sculptures from the National Gallery collection, including Johann Gottfried Schadow's original model of the Prussian princesses Luise and Friederike.

Located near Humboldt Forum and Foreign Ministry at Werderscher Markt, this museum opens Wednesday through Friday from 10:00 to 17:00 and weekends until 18:00.

After neighboring construction caused structural damage in 2012, the church underwent restoration work through 2020, requiring modifications to surrounding building heights.
