St. John's Church, Lutheran church in Klaipėda, Lithuania.
The current St. John's Church stands at the location of its predecessor, featuring a modern design that differs from traditional church architecture.
The original church, constructed in 1258 and reconstructed between 1856-1858, included a 75-meter tower with an observation deck before its destruction in 1945.
The church represents the Lutheran heritage of Klaipėda and maintains connections with the Evangelical Lutheran Church community in Lithuania.
Visitors can explore exhibits in the adjacent square that detail the history of the original structure through informative displays and artifacts.
The Seimas of Lithuania designated the reconstruction project of St. John's Church as nationally important, with plans based on German blueprints.
