Kreuzkirche Hottingen

Kreuzkirche Hottingen is a Protestant church in Zurich's District 7 that features a central dome structure and a columned portico entrance. A three-sided choir section occupies the eastern part, while the main hall accommodates around 1400 people.

The building was constructed in 1900 and replaced an earlier chapel from 1612 that originally served as a burial site and occasional worship space. This replacement reflected the expanding needs of the district.

The name refers to the cross layout that defines its architectural design. Inside, reliefs by August Bösch decorate the walls and create a sense of crafted detail that visitors notice as they move through the space.

The church is located at Dolderstrasse 60 and is easily accessible by public transport or car in this central district. Regular services and classical music concerts are held throughout the year, making these times particularly worthwhile for a visit.

The organ was built in 1905 by Goll AG with 47 registers and originally operated using a water-powered pneumatic system. This technical detail demonstrates the engineering craftsmanship of the early 1900s.
