Dorfkirche Biesdorf, Medieval church in Biesdorf, Germany.

The Dorfkirche Biesdorf, also called Gnadenkirche, consists of a nave with rough stone walls and a shallow orange-red tiled roof, and a 40-metre dark brick tower with a steep pyramidal roof and paired arched openings. Inside, a dark wooden ceiling covers a white-plastered hall; three steps lead to an arched altar alcove with a wooden cross, flanked by two tall green-glass windows. The altar and pulpit are built of red clinker brick.

The church has roots reaching back to the early 13th century, with portions of the nave walls dating to 1230. After bombing destroyed it in 1944, the building was carefully reconstructed and stands today as one of Berlin's oldest surviving sacred structures.

The church remains a gathering place for the local Protestant community, where regular services and celebrations connect people to the area's religious heritage. Its presence in the neighborhood marks a continuity of faith that has endured through major upheavals.

Since around 1985 the former village green with the church has sat on an island between the lanes of the combined B 1 and B 5 roads, so reach it via the pedestrian crossings. The site lies in Berlin's Marzahn-Hellersdorf district, in the Biesdorf locality. Check service times before setting out, as opening depends on the congregation.

The church was built as a hall church without a choir or apse, a design rare for its time. A blocked round-arched portal in the north wall points to the late Romanesque period, helping date the building to the last quarter of the 13th century.
