Azania Front Lutheran Church, Lutheran church near the harbor in Dar es Salaam, Tanzania
The red-tiled roof church stands with white walls and tiled window canopies, featuring a Gothic interior design facing the ocean front.
German missionaries constructed this Lutheran church in 1898 during the colonial period, establishing it as the center of their mission in Tanzania.
The church combines German and East African influences in its architecture while offering services in both English and Swahili for the local congregation.
Located at the intersection of Azikiwe Street and Sokoine Drive, the church holds English services at 9 AM on Sundays and Swahili services throughout the week.
The church houses a new handmade organ that provides musical accompaniment during services and choir rehearsals in the Gothic-style interior space.
