Christuskirche, Lutheran church in Mürwik district, Flensburg, Germany.
Christuskirche is a church building located in the Mürwik district of Flensburg, distinguished by its modern architecture and decorative stone reliefs depicting biblical scenes above the main entrance. The interior contains several worship spaces designed for religious services and community gatherings.
Construction took place between 1957 and 1958 as a new building for the district's growing community. Its development was enabled by financial backing from military circles, establishing a lasting connection to the nearby naval base.
The interior holds a late Gothic triumphal cross from 1500, originally from a church in Wilster, which represents how religious art from the region has been preserved over centuries. This cross is one of the oldest artworks visitors encounter upon entering the building.
The building welcomes visitors during service times and special events. It is helpful to check ahead about current activities to plan a visit at the best time.
The building functions simultaneously as a garrison church for the Flensburg-Mürwik naval base and as a parish church for the civilian district population. This dual purpose makes it a special place serving different communities.
