The Frauenkirche in Dresden, Germany, shortly after the new cross was installed on the top of the dome on June 22, 2004. The Frauenkirche was destroyed by the Anglo-American allied forces during the bombing attack in February 1945 during World War II and restored again in the beginning of the 21st century only. The glass dome of the Academy of Fine Arts is seen at the left. The glass dome of the main building of the Academy of Fine Arts is colloquially referred to as Lemon Squeezer.
