Martin-Luther-Kirche, Protected cultural heritage church in Blumenthal, Germany.
Martin-Luther-Kirche is a brick church building in the Gothic Revival style with a prominent eastern tower rising above the structure. Its interior follows a hall church layout with intricate brickwork details that define the exterior design.
The church was built from 1902 to 1903 under architect Karl Mohrmann's design for the expanding Protestant community. During World War II, it suffered damage in an air raid that destroyed the original windows, though the main structure survived.
The church serves the local Protestant community and was designed to anchor the neighborhood when Blumenthal was expanding. The brick building remains a visual landmark that residents pass and reference in their daily lives.
The church is located at Wigmodistraße 31A in Bremen's Blumenthal district and is accessible by public transport. Visitors should note that as a protected heritage site, access is restricted to specific times and may require planning ahead.
The organ inside was rebuilt in 1964 by Paul Ott, replacing the original 1903 instrument crafted by Furtwängler and Hammer. This later addition is a detail that visitors often overlook when exploring the interior.
