Kirche Altenberg, Lutheran church in Altenberg, Germany

The church features a 34-meter tower and follows a Greek cross floor plan with a functional main hall for community gatherings.

The original wooden structure from the 15th century was replaced by a stone church between 1522 and 1525, dedicated to Saint Nicholas.

The church maintains regular services, family gatherings, and hosts musical events as part of a network of nine churches in the Ore Mountains.

The current building, constructed between 1989 and 1991, contains a Georg Wünning organ with 17 registers distributed across two manuals and pedals.

The church's construction costs were funded by the East German Mining Ministry, with architects from Dresden leading the project.
