Hochmeisterkirche

Hochmeisterkirche is a church with a hexagonal floor plan, red brick walls, and white plaster panels in the Berlin area. A slender tower rises roughly 65 meters and serves as the building's distinctive landmark.

Construction took place between 1908 and 1910 in the Romanesque Revival style reflecting Berlin's architectural traditions. The building suffered war damage during the Second World War, including a fire that destroyed the roof in 1943.

The name references the Grand Master of the Teutonic Order, reflecting deep religious roots in the area. Inside, sandstone galleries and stained glass windows depicting the four evangelists show the craftsmanship invested in its design.

The building holds about 700 people and is used regularly for religious services. Visitors can join guided tours to learn more about the architecture and interior details.

The Karl Schuke organ was installed in 1959 to replace the original instrument lost during war damage. This instrument shapes the sound profile today and is played regularly at services and concerts.
