Auferstehungskirche, Lutheran church in Friedrichshain, Germany.

Auferstehungskirche is an evangelical brick church on Friedenstraße in Friedrichshain, built 1892–1895 to a design by August Menken using a sketch by Hermann Blankenstein. A tall square tower with rows of narrow arched windows and a round window near its flat top stands on the left; a lower hall with tall arched windows and a rounded arched doorway extends to the right, its roofline edged with capped brick detailing.

The church was built between 1892 and 1895 on the site of a former pauper's cemetery, using a sketch by Hermann Blankenstein and the design of government architect August Menken. The foundation stone was laid on 7 May 1892 and the church was consecrated on 17 May 1895. British air raids in November 1943 and March 1944 set it on fire, and an American bomb on 3 February 1945 destroyed the nave, chancel and roof; the tower lost its spire.

The name Auferstehungskirche (Resurrection Church) refers to the resurrection of Jesus; the parish split from St. Markus, whose members grew from 20,000 in 1854 to 113,000 in 1885. In 1920 the congregation opened a children's day nursery that has operated without interruption ever since. In January 2023 the Auferstehung and Galiläa-Samariter parishes merged into the Samariter-Auferstehung congregation.

The church stands at Friedenstraße 83, next to the Friedhof V of the Georgen-Parochialgemeinde and the St.-Petri cemetery. The site lies in northern Friedrichshain, a short walk from the Frankfurter Allee and Karl-Marx-Allee corridors. The tower lost its spire in the war and now ends flat, so the entrance front is easy to recognise from the street.

The church was built on the site of a municipal poor cemetery opened in 1838 with the burial of cholera victims; it received around 20,000 dead before closing. Before construction, the 3.2-hectare grounds served as a timber yard and a sculptor's workshop. The foundation stone was laid on 7 May 1892 in the presence of Kaiser Wilhelm II.
