Bleckkirche, Romanesque Revival church in Gelsenkirchen, Germany.
The Bleckkirche features a Renaissance altar from 1574 and stands as an example of brick construction in the Romanesque Revival architectural style.
Built in 1735 by master masons Evert Bitter and Henrich Hilßmann, the church underwent several expansions before reaching its final form in 1889.
The church functions as a cultural center in Gelsenkirchen, hosting theatrical performances, concerts, exhibitions, and various artistic events throughout the year.
