Dorfkirche Britz, Gothic church in Britz, Germany

Dorfkirche Britz is a fieldstone church built around 1300, standing on a small rise above the village pond. Its choir-square plan is early Gothic, with a south annex that may have been added in 1766 as a burial chapel for the family of Prussian minister Ewald Friedrich von Hertzberg. The west tower, added in 1888 by Carl Busse, was simplified after World War II damage.

The building was founded around 1310 and displays early Gothic architectural features in its design. It underwent extensive renovation in 1888 under master builder Carl Busse, preserving the structure for future generations.

The church holds three bronze bells and displays religious treasures including a 15th-century baptismal bowl and a communion chalice from 1720. These objects reflect centuries of worship and community rituals held within its walls.

The church stands on a small rise above the village pond, set apart from the surrounding streets. The 1888 west tower and the choir annex are the main exterior features to locate; the interior is entered from the west side. The 1948 Charles Crodel windows and the 1999 Karl Schuke organ are inside.

The church stands on a small rise above the village pond, set apart from the village on a protected peninsula-like site; the source compares this placement only with the Komturei church in Tempelhof and Ihlow on the Barnim. The medieval Marienglocke of 1268 was destroyed in the 1943 air raid, and remains of it are kept in the Museum Neukölln.
