DenkRaum Sophienkirche

The DenkRaum Sophienkirche, formerly known as the Busmannkapelle Memorial (Gedenkstätte Busmannkapelle) is a building on Sophie Street in Dresden. It is a reconstruction of the Busmannkapelle and began construction in 2009, though planning began in 1995. It is a memorial to the Sophienkirche, lost in the bombing in 1945.

In 2020, the memorial was opened as the DenkRaum Sophienkirche.[1] The memorial was created after 12 years of construction and commemorates what was once the oldest church in the city.[2]
