Christuskirche, Protestant church in Wuppertal-Elberfeld, Germany.

The Christuskirche features a square tower reaching 70 meters high, crowned with an octagonal structure and copper-clad spire.

The church's foundation stone was laid in 1899, carrying an inscription from Hebrews 13:8, and the building was consecrated in December 1901.

The Christuskirche serves as a central worship location for the Lutheran congregation of Elberfeld-Südstadt within the Wuppertal Church District.

The reconstruction of the church after World War II cost one million Deutsche Mark, with 94,000 DM contributed by the Christuskirch Building Association.

During World War II, an organist named Neumann risked his life by removing an unexploded incendiary bomb that had fallen through the church roof.
