Adding loft and grandeur to Gendarmenmarkt, the Französischer Dom is a domed tower that was built in the 1780s adjacent to the Französische Friedrichstadtkirche (French Friedrichstadt Church) erected by Huguenot refugees in 1705. The dome is closed for restoration, but the church hosts free short organ recitals at 12.30pm Tuesday to Friday, plus a 30-minute version at 3pm on Tuesday.
