The German Cathedral is the southernmost of the twin churches on the Gendarmenmarkt square. • Although it looks like a church from the outside, the inside is a multi-level museum on the history of German parliament. • The main entrance has steps but you can go to the south (left) side of the building, press the button, and a staff member will unlock the door that you will need to pull open. • An elevator can get you to all levels of the building except for the reception desk to pick up an English audioguide.

Is the door push/pull, revolving, automated by a button, or motion activated? A pull door. At the step-free entrance, press the button and someone will unlock the door.
