Gustav Adolf Church, Lutheran religious building in Park Lane, Liverpool, England.

The red brick church features a central three-story stair tower with a lead-covered spire and incorporates traditional Scandinavian architectural elements throughout its structure.

Built between 1883 and 1884, the church served Scandinavian emigrants passing through Liverpool's port during the significant migration period of the late 19th century.

The interior displays five plaster reliefs by Robert Anning Bell and sculptures of Christ and Madonna created by Arthur Dooley, representing religious artistic expressions.

The building includes a community meeting room, kitchen facilities, and a café in the lower level, following renovations carried out in the early 1990s.

A legal clause from 1883 prevented the church's conversion into luxury apartments in 2008, returning ownership rights to Liverpool City Council.
