Christopheruskirche, Gothic Revival church in Friedrichshagen, Germany
Christopheruskirche is a Gothic Revival brick building with pointed arches, ribbed vaults, and a square tower on the north side. Today it houses community rooms created from former side aisles, providing additional space for congregation activities.
The building opened in 1903 and replaced a smaller village church from 1800. Empress Auguste Viktoria partially funded its construction costs of 300,000 marks.
The church displays a mosaic of Saint Christopher against the Müggelsee landscape on its main gable. This connects the local geography with religious meaning in a striking visual way.
Access is straightforward, and the interior is easy to explore. Visitors can enjoy the architecture at their leisure and discover the repurposed spaces.
The organ was originally built by the Dinse brothers with eight registers and underwent multiple renovations. It now features 40 registers across three manuals and pedal.
