Stadtkirche Glückstadt, Lutheran church in Glückstadt, Germany.

The elongated white-washed brick building features a polygonal choir, an octagonal end section, and a western tower on a square foundation.

Construction of the Stadtkirche took place from 1618 to 1623, with reconstruction needed in 1648 after a hurricane destroyed the western tower.

The tower's crown incorporates the goddess Fortuna with a veil, King Christian IV's monogram, and a globe with a cross at its peak.

The church stands at Am Markt 10 in Glückstadt and regularly holds services, concerts, and community gatherings for local residents.

Three new bronze bells cast by Rincker foundry in 2023 join the original bell from 1623, creating a complete set of four bells.
