Dear readers,
we spoke already about a “path of light and darkness” in two of my previous posts: Jesus is Lady (discovering the true colors of Santiago De Compostela´s Old Town) and Berlin Cemetery Tour Part I (darkness and romanticism).
Still in the mood to discover other fascinating burial monuments and graves, I couldn´t miss the Hoenzollern Crypt in the Berlin Cathedral.The Hohenzollern Crypt contains 94 entombments from the end of the 16th century until the beginning of the 20th century.

Sadly I couldn´take much good quality photos in the crypt as it was very dark and the flash is not allowed. I decided then to show you a complete tour of the Berliner Dom, from darkness and death to light and heaven, from the crypt to the couple.

Cari lettori,
abbiamo parlato in precedenza di cammini fatti di luce e buio in due dei miei posts precedenti: Jesus is Lady (alla scoperta dei veri colori della “città vecchia” di Santiago De Compostela)e Berlin Cemetery Tour Part I (oscurità e romanticismo). Essendo ancora dell´umore adatto a riscoprire monumenti cimiteriali e tombe non potevo di certo perdere la Cripta regale degli Hoenzollern nel Duomo di Berlino. La cripta contiene 94 tombe dalla fine del XVI secolo agli inizi del XX secolo. Putroppo non ho potuto fare molte foto di qualità, essendo la cripta molto buia, ho deciso dunque di mostrarvi un tour completo del Duomo di Berlino, dall´ombra alla luce, dalla cripta alla cupola…

The Hoenzollern Crypt
Many artistic styles since the late-Gothic are reflected in these coffins some of which are very simple, some richly decorated.
