Hi all,

between March and mid August I build a scaled model of the [Frauenkirche in
Dresden] (Church of our lady). The real church was nearly fully destroyed in
the last days of WW II and encouraged people decided after the german
reunification in the 1990's to collect money worldwide and to rebuild this
baroque building with the eye-catching sandstone dome.

The construction around the the darker parts of the ruin where finished last
year in October and there was I big celebration while the Frauenkirche was
reopend for the public.

In March 2006 I managed to visit the church and after seeing all the old and
new bircks I decided to build my own LEGO model mostly using tan and dark
grey for the facade.

For a more detailed report on the church and the building process please feel

While building I had to speed up a bit to get ready just in time for the
1000steine-Land in Berlin in August. There even the LEGO bosses took a closer
look at my model!
