Is Berlin Cathedral (Berliner Dom) worth it solo?

Worth itSolo

Solo, Berlin Cathedral (Berliner Dom) works.

The Wilhelmine baroque interior and the Hohenzollern crypt are genuinely impressive, and the dome walk gives a close-up view across Museum Island. The catch: it's a relatively young (early-1900s) church charging cathedral-level admission, and it can feel more pomp than piety.
