Auferstehungskirche, Protestant church building in Vaihingen district, Stuttgart, Germany.
Auferstehungskirche is a Protestant church building in Stuttgart's Vaihingen district, featuring stone walls, a pitched roof, and large windows that flood the interior with light. The worship space accommodates regular services and community gatherings throughout the year.
The church opened in 1879 and suffered severe bomb damage during World War II. After the war, it was rebuilt with major modifications to its original layout and design.
The interior features an altar with distinctive stucco artwork created by Munich artist Artur Karl Maerthesheimer following the post-war renovation.
The building is open during worship services and community events held regularly throughout the year. Visitors should check in advance about current opening times and gatherings, as these may vary depending on the season and religious holidays.
During post-war reconstruction, the worship space was rotated 180 degrees, fundamentally changing the building's internal layout. A cross was incorporated into the exterior wall to mark this symbolic transformation.
