Martinskirche

The white-washed masonry church features rounded arch portals, sloped roof elements, and a slender tower reaching 26 meters in height.

Construction of Martinskirche began in February 1960 and concluded with its consecration in September 1961, funded partially by the Federal Republic of Germany.

The interior displays sculptures by Karlheinz Hoffmann, including a lava stone altar with Last Supper relief and bronze-framed pulpit depicting congregation members.

The church accommodates 320 seats in the main area and contains a separate basement space with a Beichtraum for 35 people.

Four bells mounted in a steel frame within the tower carry Biblical inscriptions, each producing distinct tones through their specific weights and dimensions.
