Lutherkirche, Gütersloh, Gothic Revival church in Gütersloh, Germany
The Lutherkirche at Berliner Platz is a Protestant church building in Gothic Revival style with a high nave and pointed arches. The structure features vertical elements typical of nineteenth-century religious architecture that draw the eye upward.
The Protestant church opened in 1861 according to designs by Christian Heyden and was the largest religious building in the city at that time. Since then it has served as a gathering place for the community and shaped the urban landscape of that era.
The church displays stained glass windows created by different artists across two centuries that shape how light fills the interior. These works remain important visual elements that visitors notice throughout their time inside.
Visitors can enter the building during opening hours to attend prayer services, join worship, or spend quiet time inside. Its location at Berliner Platz makes the church easy to find and accessible on foot.
