St. Matthew's Church, Lutheran brick church in Winterhude, Hamburg, Germany

St. Matthew's Church is a brick church with baroque features in Hamburg's northern districts. The red exterior and large windows define its appearance, while the interior showcases modern artistic elements.

The building was constructed from 1910 to 1912 following Julius Faulwasser's design during Hamburg's suburban expansion. It was part of a wave of church construction in the early 20th century built for growing congregations.

The church takes its name from the Evangelist Matthew, following a plan to name the daughter churches of St. John's in Eppendorf after the other three Evangelists. The 1961–1971 interior redesign removed the neo-baroque altar and added Charles Crodel's windows. Since 2019, alabaster plates lit by LEDs in the altar area replace traditional antependia, changing colour with the church year.

The church sits in a residential neighborhood and is easy to reach on foot. It is best visited during regular opening hours or service times when the doors are open to the public.

The tower holds three bronze bells. The original set was seized as metal for the war effort in World War I; the congregation then bought a bell cast in 1758 by Christof Gottlieb in East Prussia, and the two smaller bells followed in 1926 and 1952.
