Markuskirche, Protestant parish church in Weststadt, Weinheim, Germany
The Markuskirche is a Protestant parish church in Weinheim's Weststadt district featuring a simple hall design with a gabled roof. A separate bell tower with decorative light slots complements the structure and defines the church's appearance.
The church was founded in 1957 and consecrated by Bishop Bender in 1958, making it a relatively recent addition to Weinheim. The new construction reflected the city's postwar development.
The church is named after the evangelist Mark and serves as a gathering place for the local community. Visitors can experience how faith and daily life connect through the activities and services held here.
The interior has 450 seats and is open during regular worship services. It is helpful to check service times beforehand and plan your visit accordingly.
Artist Klaus Arnold decorated the walls with stained glass windows depicting scenes from the Apostolic Creed. Each wall tells a different story: creation in the west, Jesus's life in the south, and the Holy Spirit in the north.
