Reformierte Kirche Effretikon
Reformierte Kirche Effretikon, Reformed church in Illnau-Effretikon, Switzerland.
The church building features a distinctive clock and bell tower composed of irregularly arranged exposed concrete blocks on an elevated location.
The church was constructed between 1959 and 1961 according to plans by architect Ernst Gisel, representing post-war modern architectural principles.
The bells from Rüetschi foundry in Aarau carry different inscriptions, while a statue of Zurich reformer Heinrich Bullinger stands in the staircase.
A 1995 extension added community rooms, a kitchen, and flexible spaces that allow expansion of the main church area when needed.
The tower's top section resembles an open hand receiving divine gifts, marked by a wooden cross and commemorative plaque.
