Berliner Dom
Berlin Cathedral is not only Berlin's largest church, but also houses the largest original preserved Late Romantic organ.
This impressive instrument is played daily in two devotions and regularly in church services and concerts. Especially the international Organ Summer in July and August is a highlight every year, featuring stars of the organ scene. But not only the music events, but also the guided tours and the church services (partly in English) are a good opportunity for tourists and those interested in the cathedral to experience it on a special occasion. Another highlight at the Cathedral on Lustgarten are the annual Jedermann Festival with well-known actors.
