Christuskirche, Gothic Revival church in Lüdenscheid, Germany

The Christuskirche features a 61.5-meter-high tower and contains two wheel windows in the transept, each measuring 8 meters in diameter.

The church construction occurred between 1900 and 1902 under architect Gerhard August Fischer from Barmen to address the increasing Protestant population needs.

The building incorporates representations of Jesus Christ's three offices through multiple figurative elements, including the teaching prophet and risen Christ in the rose window.

The church accommodates 1,200 seats, making it the largest religious building in the Märkischer Kreis region of North Rhine-Westphalia.

The church clock mechanism, positioned at 61.5 meters height, requires manual winding every five days and remains the first delivered mechanism of its type.
