Salzburger Kirche, Lutheran church building in Gusev, Russia
The Salzburger Kirche features six large rounded arch windows on each side and includes a square tower with a folded tent roof.
Construction of the current structure began between 1839 and 1840, following plans by Prussian architect Karl Friedrich Schinkel to replace the original building.
The church stands as a testament to Protestant refugees from Salzburg who settled in East Prussia following their expulsion due to religious persecution.
The church building stands on Mendeleyeva Street in central Gusev, maintaining its status as a regional cultural heritage site of Russia.
Following severe damage in January 1945 that resulted in the loss of its tower, the church underwent restoration works and reopened on Reformation Day 1995.
