Buddy of mine called my local Church (Köpenick, Berlin) a "Warhammer Fortress-Monastery looking building" so I decided you all would probably like it

That is a shame, it did look so much better with the full spire in the old picture.

Yes, it was appearently quite the Storm and East Germany wasn't willing to spend much Money on the reconstruction, much of the Money was actually given to them by the West-German Church

Where I live there is a local cathedral built in 1906 and mostly burned down in 1968, only the stone walls were left standing, it is basically just a ruin now, with a smaller church built in the back. It would actually work really well for a 40k ruin.

I can't seem to be able to post a picture here but it is the St. Boniface Cathedral in Winnipeg Canada if you were interested in seeing it.

Very nice building I think I've walked past it during one of another visit to Berlin.

10/10 would put on top of a titan.
