Erlöserkirche, Protestant church in Gerolstein, Germany
The Erlöserkirche presents Neo-Romanesque and Byzantine architectural elements, featuring red sandstone blocks measuring 30 meters in length and 18 meters in width.
The Berlin Evangelical Church Construction Association funded the church construction between 1907 and 1913, later gifting it to Emperor Wilhelm II.
The interior decoration includes expansive gold mosaics by Hermann Schaper and Friedrich Schwarting, with glass windows designed by Rudolf and Otto Linnemann.
The church offers guided tours on Wednesdays and Saturdays at 11:00 AM and 3:00 PM from April through October, with adult admission at 4 euros.
During the church construction in 1907, workers discovered remains of a Roman villa dating back to the first century AD beneath the foundation.
