Remonstrantenkirche

The Remonstrantenkirche is a church building in Friedrichstadt with a single-nave hall structure built from brick. The walls feature large round-arched windows and Corinthian pilasters that give the interior a clear, symmetrical appearance.

The building was constructed in 1854 to replace the original church from 1624 that was destroyed during armed conflict. This rebuilding reflected the community's determination to restore their religious home at this location.

The building reflects its connection to Dutch traditions in how the space continues to be used today. Visitors notice how this place tells the story of a religious community that settled in Friedrichstadt centuries ago.

The interior houses a restored organ from 1869 that is visible on the gallery above the entrance area. The space offers a calm setting for exploring and reflecting on the architecture.

This is the only building of this religious tradition in the German-speaking region and preserves a rare presence. Visitors discover a quiet testimony to a religious minority that kept their beliefs alive in this area.
