Dorfkirche Lichtenrade, Medieval church in Lichtenrade, Berlin, Germany.
Description
The Dorfkirche Lichtenrade is a rectangular fieldstone building with a gabled roof situated near the largest village pond in Berlin. The structure shows the typical construction style of a medieval rural church.
History
The church was first documented in 1375, making it one of Berlin's older religious buildings. After severe bombing damage in 1943, the structure underwent major reconstruction work that continued until 1949.
Culture
The church interior features colored windows created by Berlin artist Hans-Joachim Burgert that give the space its distinctive appearance. Visitors can also see the original altar cross and baptismal font that remain in use today.
Practical
The church is located at Alt-Lichtenrade 105 near a community house that can be used for post-service gatherings and private celebrations. The nearby village pond area provides space to walk around and makes a visit a relaxed experience.
