Essay from the year 2017 in the subject Business economics - Miscellaneous, grade: A, Lancaster University, language: English, abstract: It was one of the finest baroque churches in the world (Meg, 1998) in a city that is known as Florence of the Elbe, dominating the skyline since its completion in 1743 (Furlong, 2004): The Frauenkirche (Church of Our Lady) in Dresden, Germany. Unfortunately, the church was destroyed in 1945, when Allied bombers attacked the city and killed around 100,000 inhabitants (Connolly, 2005; Meg, 1998) in response to the Germans bombing the City of London.
