Evangelische Altstadtkirche, Protestant church in Gelsenkirchen, Germany.

The church building features red rectangular brick surfaces with stone decorations, highlighted by gray-white concrete strips and three round-arched entrance portals.

After the previous structure was destroyed in 1944, architect Denis Boniver designed this new church, which was constructed between 1955 and 1956.

The church maintains regular Protestant services while functioning as a community center for religious education and social gatherings in Gelsenkirchen.

Located at Am Rundhöfchen 1, the church includes a 70-meter tower with three open concrete arch stories and contains a modern organ with 46 stops.

The Karl Schuke organ, installed in 2001, features 3,341 pipes and includes a specialized Vox humana stop in a separate swell box.
