Neue Kirche, Protestant church in Wismar, Germany.

The church features a single-nave brick structure with a five-sided choir closure and wooden three-joint supports serving as load-bearing elements inside.

Built between 1950 and 1951 according to Otto Bartning's emergency church design Type B, the structure incorporated bricks from the damaged St. Mary's Church parsonage.

The church houses a 15th-century Passion altar, originally from St. George's Church, displaying detailed scenes of the Passion of Christ.

The church welcomes visitors Monday through Friday from 10:00 to 14:00 and Saturday from 10:00 to 16:00, with extended hours during summer months.

Originally planned as a temporary solution after World War II, the church became permanent when St. Mary's main nave faced demolition in 1960.
