Luther Church, Protestant church in Paradies district, Konstanz, Germany
The Luther Church is a Protestant place of worship in the Paradies district of Konstanz and displays architectural features typical of the 19th century. The building features a prominent bell tower and is characterized by decorative elements that define its exterior.
Construction began in 1865 and was completed in 1873, with Grand Duke Friedrich I of Baden donating three bells for the new Protestant building. These bells remain part of the equipment today and serve as a reminder of the grand ducal support during its establishment.
The church serves as a gathering place for music lovers who attend regular concerts and listen to its organ. It shapes the neighborhood as an important location for Protestant worship and cultural events.
Visitors can enter the building at various times, especially when concerts take place, which are normally offered on Saturday afternoons. A visit is relatively straightforward since the building is not remote and is accessible on foot.
A memorial to Jan Hus was placed near the church in 2015 to commemorate his death during the Council of Konstanz 600 years earlier. This memorial connects the local church history with an important event in the European Reformation movement.
