Erlöserkirche, Gothic Revival church in Seckenheim, Germany
The Erlöserkirche features a 65-meter-high square tower, pointed arch windows, and buttresses constructed between 1867 and 1869 in Mannheim's Seckenheim district.
The decision to build Erlöserkirche came in 1857 when the Protestant congregation chose to leave the shared St. Aegidius Church to the Catholics after 200 years of joint use.
The interior design reflects Protestant principles with wooden galleries adorned with Gothic Revival carvings and minimal decorative elements in the worship space.
The church received new bronze bells in 2006, including the Redeemer Bell weighing 1,130 kilograms with an inscription reading 'I know that my Redeemer lives'.
Architect Hermann Behaghel incorporated the building into the urban landscape using red sandstone and traditional German Protestant church architecture principles.
