Auferstehungskirche, Neoclassical church building and architectural heritage monument in Arnsberg, Germany.

The Auferstehungskirche is a white stucco church with a dark slate roof and a central tower topped by a tall pointed spire with a cross. Its front has a projecting gabled bay with pilasters and a small cross above the door, flanked by two identical wings with tall multi-paned windows and stepped doorways. Inside, a central space is ringed by eight Doric columns.

Built between 1822 and 1824, it was Arnsberg's first Protestant church. After the duchy passed to Hesse-Darmstadt in 1803, Protestant officials and a Hessian garrison settled here; after the region went to Prussia in 1816, pastor Ferdinand Hasenclever pushed the project. Karl Friedrich Schinkel's neo-Gothic proposal was rejected, and a neoclassical central building in the form of a Greek cross was erected, extended westward in 1890/91.

The church's name refers to the Resurrection, and its 1830 altarpiece by Ernst Deger shows the risen Christ in Nazarene style. The baptismal font on the north side is modelled on an antique sacrificial bowl, and the pulpit follows Neoclassical forms. Part of the 1890 extension is now separated and used for parish work.

The church stands on the Neumarkt in Arnsberg's classical quarter, a short walk from the old town. The main entrance is reached by steps over a low white wall; the two side doorways also have steps. The interior is used for multifunctional purposes, with some pews replaced by chairs.

The church appears in a scene of the ARD television film "Letzte Ausfahrt Sauerland", first broadcast on 15 May 2015 and directed by Nikolai Müllerschön. The building itself is a neoclassical central structure in the form of an isosceles Greek cross, with a tower and surrounding gallery above the central block.
