The temple from 1701-1705 was built for French religious refugees, distinguished by its Huguenot origin.

The Katedra Francuska is a Huguenot church built between 1701 and 1705 for French religious refugees who settled in Berlin. The tower with a dome, added in 1785, houses a viewing platform and a Huguenot museum. The interior is characterized by the simplicity typical of Protestant churches. The building stands on Gendarmenmarkt, opposite the Katedra Niemiecka. You can climb the tower to admire the panorama of the square.
