A common house of worship featuring a mosque, a synagogue and a Christian church is being planned for Berlin.
Berlin Rabbi Tovia Ben Chorin, Imam Kadir Sanci and Pastor Gregor Hohberg hope their dream can become a reality.
The trio hope Christians, Jews and Muslims will soon study and pray together.
The city has already given approval for the construction of the “House of One” on the Petriplatz square in downtown Berlin.
Construction costs are estimated at 43.5 million euros and funding is entirely through donations.
In an online crowd-funding campaign, the three clerics are asking people from around the world to contribute by buying bricks for the building for 10 euros each.
Since launching the campaign at the start of June they have received a little more than 35,000 euros.
Meanwhile, believers of the different faiths have already used the future site of the House of One for joint open-air prayers.
