Dresden Frauenkirche rebuilt

The Wikipedia tells us that the Frauenkirche in Dresden, Germany was reconsecrated today. It was destroyed in the firebombing during WWII, and stood as it was for several decades as a memorial. After the reunification of East and West Germany, though, support for rebuilding it grew. Many of the original stones were used in the reconstruction, and the original construction techniques were used whenever possible.
