Lutheran Church of the Redeemer

The square bell tower of this Protestant church, the second built in Jerusalem, has ornamented the Old City's skyline since 1898. The Church of the Redeemer was commissioned by Kaiser Wilhelm II and built on the site of an 11th-century sanctuary. It's worth buying a ticket to access the tower for 360-degree views over the Old City – hold your breath: its winding stairs are a squeeze.
