Презентация, доклад на тему Cathedral of Koenigsberg (7 класс)

is built in the Baltic Gothic style. The construction of the Cathedral Church took place in 1297-1302. Until the 16th century, the building was the main Catholic Church of Kaliningrad. Now in the Cathedral there are chapels, the Museum of the Cathedral, the Museum of Emmanuel Kant, and also here concerts of religious and classical music are systematically organized.

century, the Cathedral was the main Catholic Church of the city of Koenigsberg (it was dedicated to the highly Consecrated body of Jesus Christ, the virgin Mary, All saints and St. Adalbert), and then the main Lutheran Church of Prussia.

In Soviet times, the Cathedral in Kaliningrad was an object of cultural heritage and was included in the list of architectural monuments of the Republic (RSFSR)

destroyed (burned down) during the Second World War. Only a few survived tombstone of Duke Albrecht Hohenzollern by Flemish architect and sculptor Cornelis Floris.

The authorities “tolerated” it at best, since it (like all pre-war buildings) was considered “a symbol of Prussian militarism and fascism” and almost “an eyesore in the eyes of the new socialist city”. The cathedral was not knock down just because Kant was buried at its walls.
In 1960, the cathedral received the status of a cultural monument of republican significance, but the ruins continued to collapse. Only in 1976 an attempt was made to restore the cathedral. However, there was more harm than good from this restoration. War front of the north tower of the cathedral. Floor epitaphs inside the cathedral were badly damaged.
