Elisabethkirche, Gothic Revival church in Eidelstedt, Germany
Elisabethkirche is a brick church built in the Gothic Revival style in Hamburg. The building features a cross-shaped floor plan with white interior walls and a wooden ceiling that creates generous vertical space inside.
The church was built in 1906 after a wealthy estate owner donated the land and parsonage for the project. Following losses during wartime, three new bells were installed in 1953.
The church received its name in the early 1950s after Elizabeth, mother of John the Baptist, previously being known as Eidelstedter Kirche.
The interior accommodates around 300 visitors and can be visited at specific times. Check the opening hours in advance or ask the local contact details to confirm access during your visit.
The original bells were melted down for metal during both World Wars, reflecting the wartime practice of metal requisitions. This loss and the subsequent replacement illustrate how crisis periods affected even sacred spaces.
