Matthäuskirche, Romanesque Revival church in Brunswick, Germany.

The Matthäuskirche is a church building with Romanesque Revival features including rounded arches, thick stone walls, and a distinctive bell tower that rises prominently in the neighborhood. The structure displays the architectural character typical of its construction period and occupies a commanding presence in its district.

Built as a garrison church and consecrated on 18 December 1904, it replaced the Aegidienkirche, which had served Brunswick's military until 8 December 1811, after which services moved to the cathedral. The bronze bells of 1904 were melted down in the First World War and replaced by steel bells consecrated on 26 February 1922. The air raid of 14/15 October 1944 damaged the roof and destroyed the windows; the building then stood unused. On 1 April 1966 the Matthäus congregation was founded, the church was renamed, and it was reconsecrated on 2 June 1967.

The church serves as a gathering place where locals come for worship and community events that anchor life in the neighborhood. Its role in bringing people together has shaped how this part of Brunswick functions over time.

Access is easiest during Sunday morning services, though the week also offers various prayer times and community gatherings throughout the month. The building sits centrally in the neighborhood and is straightforward to reach on foot.

The bronze bells of 1904 were melted down in the First World War; steel bells were consecrated on 26 February 1922. The organ by E. F. Walcker & Cie., with 20 stops on two manuals and pedal, entered use on 27 October 1968. The stained glass was destroyed in the air raid of 14/15 October 1944.
