Christus- und Garnisonkirche

The Christus und Garnisonkirche features a 55-meter tower above the crossing and detailed red brick architecture with pointed arches throughout its structure.

Built between 1869 and 1872 under the name Elisabethkirche, the church received significant damage during World War II and reopened in 1959 with its current name.

The interior walls display commemorative plaques and naval flags from the Imperial German Navy, honoring maritime personnel who served their country.

The church welcomes visitors at Am Kirchplatz 1 in Wilhelmshaven, with access through bus lines 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 8, and 111 stopping at the main station.

The founding document of this church from 1869 contains King Wilhelm I's official naming of the city of Wilhelmshaven.
