Christuskirche, Protestant church in Neuss, Germany
The Christuskirche is a Protestant church in Neuss built with natural stone blocks and marked by two towers of different heights. The structure features a star-shaped vaulted ceiling inside and supporting arcades that hold up the gallery space.
The church was built on the grounds of a former cemetery and opened to the public in September 1906 after two years of construction. This completed structure represented an important development for the Protestant community of the city.
The interior features stained glass windows from different periods that cast colored light throughout the space. These windows tell stories through their designs and colors from various eras of the church's past.
The church stands on Breite Straße and welcomes visitors for private prayer throughout the week. Regular Protestant services take place here, so you may want to check service times if you plan to attend a gathering.
The entrance area holds one of the oldest Protestant memorials in the city, a gravestone from 1650 that belongs to a person from earlier times. This marker gives visitors a rare window into the early days of Protestantism in this part of Germany.
