- 13 years ago
Take a tour of Potsdam's St. Nikolai Church in Potsdam, Germany – part of the World’s Greatest Attractions travel video series by GeoBeats.
Potsdam, Germany is famous for many important sites and events, including its spectacular St. Nikolai Church.
This imposing church is located in the Old Market Square of this ancient Germanic city, and was built in the mid 19th century.
The later constructed Romanesque tower is topped by a Renaissance dome of copper, at the peak of which is an elegant golden cross.
The ground on which the church stands has housed various churches and holy sites for centuries, dating back to the 1300s.
The church was extensively damaged during World War II, and has since been in a state of constant reconstruction.
Recently the church’s renovations were completed; visitors can now enter its delicately painted interior.
A beautiful view of Potsdam can be seen from the top; nearly rivaling the sight of St. Nikolai's itself.
