This photo of the famous Frauenkirche in Munich was taken shortly after sunset with a long exposure.
The official name of this late Gothic church is Dom zu Unserer Lieben Frau. It is often referred to simply as Munich Cathedral. The church is one of the three largest brick churches north of the Alps. It was first mentioned in 1269. With its twin towers visible from afar, the Frauenkirche is probably the best-known landmark in the Bavarian capital.
