Apostelkirche, Protestant church in Trachau district, Dresden, Germany

The Apostelkirche displays New Objectivity architecture with brick expressionist elements, featuring reddish-brown bricks and a prominent bell tower in north Dresden.

Built between 1927 and 1929 according to architect Oswin Hempel's design, the church emerged when Trachau's growing population required a separate religious building.

The baptistery contains Hans Nadler's sgraffito artwork depicting scenes from Jesus's life, reflecting the Protestant traditions of the neighborhood.

The church belongs to the Evangelical Lutheran Laurentius parish of Dresden-Trachau and holds regular services for the local community.

The bell tower received new bronze bells in 2006, replacing the original steel ones, with inscriptions reading 'Glory to God in the Highest' and 'Peace on Earth'.
