Follow all 19 stops or select just a few chapters for a first impression – you decide how much you want to explore. Start right away, pause whenever you like, and return later: the audio guide is always available to you.

Soundscape: What does the organ, a choir, or an ensemble sound like in this extraordinary church? Take four minutes to find out – with your smartphone. You will hear the Peace Bell Jesaja, the Frauenkirche Chamber Choir, the chamber orchestra ensemble frauenkirche dresden, and Frauenkirche cantor Matthias Grünert playing the Kern organ.

Scan-Funktion: Our app makes your smartphone camera smart! Use the scan function (marked with the open square in the bottom navigation) and point your phone at details that catch your eye. Short, quick facts explain what you are looking at.
