Michaelskirche

Michaelskirche, Modern church in Espelkamp, Germany.

Michaelskirche is a church building at Tannenbergplatz in Espelkamp, built in 1982. Its lower section is white-rendered with a flat roof, set beneath a steeply pitched roof of reddish-orange tiles; a horizontal band of grey panels runs above the rectangular windows and doors. On the right stands a tall white square bell tower with an open, roofed belfry holding a visible bell, narrow vertical openings and a small balcony with a metal railing.

The current building was constructed in 1982, replacing an earlier 1956 structure that originally served displaced persons and refugees following World War II. The new church was built to meet the needs of the growing local community for modern religious facilities.

The parish began in 1945 with services in a barracks of the former Espelkamp-Mittwald munitions depot, and the Martinsgemeinde was formally founded on 27 July 1952. In 1972 a "Griechenstube" opened on the upper floor of the Martinshaus as a meeting place for the town's largest group of foreign workers, Greek employees.

The church sits near Tannenbergplatz in a central location that is easy to find. Visitors should check ahead for service times and any community events happening during their visit.

The parish began in 1945 with services in a makeshift barracks on the grounds of the former Espelkamp-Mittwald ammunition plant. From Pentecost 1948 the plant's former celebration hall could also be used, before refugee accommodation was converted into a new residential settlement. The Martinsgemeinde was officially founded on 27 July 1952.
