Martin Luther Church

The Martin Luther Church features a concrete construction with a tent-like configuration, demonstrating the principles of modern architectural design from the 1950s.

The church, completed in 1958 by architects Franz Steinbrüchel and Ernst Ulrich Krägel, represents the expansion of Protestant communities in post-war Zürich.

This religious structure maintains its position as a Swiss cultural property of cantonal significance, contributing to District 6's architectural heritage.

Located at Beckenhofstrasse 40, the church functions as both a Lutheran worship center and a gathering space for community activities.

The building received specialized lighting enhancements in 2011, incorporating halogen spotlights to accentuate its geometric architectural elements.
