Kirche des heiligen Nikolaus

The Kirche des heiligen Nikolaus features asymmetrical cubes and visible concrete elements, including ceiling beams and gargoyles reflecting modern architectural principles.

Initially constructed in 1965 as the Evangelical Simeonkirche, the building was sold in 2003 to the Greek Orthodox community who dedicated it to Saint Nicholas.

The interior combines architectural elements with concrete artworks by Hans Kock, creating an integrated design that serves the religious needs of Hamburg's Greek community.

Located at Sievekingsallee 12b in Hamburg's Hamm district, the church maintains regular services and hosts a weekly light-sound installation every Saturday evening.

The building incorporates architectural elements inspired by Le Corbusier, making it one of Hamburg's most notable religious structures from the post-World War II period.
