Berlin Cathedral has a chequered history of construction. As early as 1450, the Erasmus Chapel was consecrated as a cathedral church in the newly built electoral palace. Later, Joachim II had the neighbouring Dominican church converted into a court church. Due to its dilapidated state and the close proximity to the castle, Frederick II decided in 1747 to have a baroque new building constructed by the architect J. Boumann.
The lecture gives an overview of the architectural developments of the cathedral in its historical context.
