"Cradle of the Reformation"

From 1885 to 1892, the palace church, which was in need of renovation, was rebuilt on the initiative of Crown Prince Friedrich Wilhelm of Prussia (1831-1888) into a monument to the Reformation, characterized by the 19th-century neo-Gothic church architecture, and its interior was appropriately furnished.
