Lutherkirche

The Lutherkirche is a Protestant church building in Kiel featuring a tall tower and stained glass windows running along the south wall. The interior contains a memorial mosaic that depicts a city after bombardment.

The original building was constructed between 1910 and 1912 but was destroyed during an air raid in 1945, with only the tower surviving intact. Rebuilding after the war created the church that stands today.

The altar features a white cross framed by lime wood sculptures that change their depictions based on church celebrations throughout the year. This arrangement shapes how the interior looks and shows how the congregation marks its seasonal observances.

The congregation holds its main religious services on Saturday evenings, with additional community activities happening throughout the week. Plan your visit to align with the times when services or events are being held.

The pipe organ was installed in 1959 by Detlef Kleuker and contains 28 registers spread across three manuals and a pedal system. This instrument shapes how the interior sounds during services.
