I visited the Sophia Church in September 2018. It is one of several sights to see in the Hackescher Markt area including the New Synagogue and the Kennedy Museum. It is a nice photo op.

“Beautiful church near Hackesche markt”

Apr 2018

If you visit the famous Hackesche Markt or in near by area and hearing church bell, it may come from this beautiful church. Located pretty near from Hackesche Markt, in a silence side street where St. Hedwig Hospital is, made this place is one of quiet place from Berlin - Mitte. When you tired of Berliner hectic tourism crowd, this one can be alternative place to visit, just remember that this is also an active church, so it may closed sometimes for service. The architecture is very nice with finest Baroque style.

Church from the early Baroque period

Sep 2024 • Solo

The Sophienkirche is particularly worth seeing due to the only surviving Baroque church tower in Berlin. Martin Luther King preached in this church on September 13, 1964. There is currently a very informative and rewarding exhibition on this subject in the church.

Attractive church with a past and a conscience

Sep 2017 • Friends

A friend took us here, in part it is an attractive example of north German baroque but also because it has a history of caring. From 1942 to 1945 it tried the serve Russian and Ukrainian prisoners of war who were being used as slave labour in nearby industries. In 1965 it gave Martin Luther King an opportunity to speak. A nice, peaceful space.

A historic German-American site

May 2015 • Solo

Martin Luther King gave a historic speech here. There is also a nice green area around the church. The inside of the church itself is bit in need of care. However, there are concerts (price is 9 euros) that might be worth checking out.
