The Cathedral was built between 1894 and 1905 and is located on an island (Museum island) in the river Spree near Berlin, Germany. The river Spree originates on the Czech border and meanders through the city of Berlin. Tourists can enjoy a lovely ferry boat ride or cruise up the river.

The large "Protestant St. Peter's" measures 114 m long and 73 m wide. The dome is intricately decorated with mosaics. Other notable artworks include Sauer's Organ, the Neo-Baroque pulpit and stained glass windows. The main altar dates from 1850. An excellent view of the dome and entire interior can be had from the dome'sgallery (270 steps). The most impressive are the tombs of Frederick I and his queen, Sophie Charlotte.
