Gethsemanekirche, Modern Lutheran church in Nordend, Frankfurt, Germany

Gethsemane Church is a modern place of worship built with concrete and steel featuring red brick facades in the Nordend district. The building comprises an east-facing sanctuary, a curved staircase, and a tall tower that rises above the surrounding neighborhood.

St. Peter's Parish bought the site in 1901 and built a parish hall there, consecrated in 1906. The Gethsemane congregation was separated from St. Peter's in 1964 and first met in that hall. An architectural competition in 1965, won by Hans Georg Heimel, led to the foundation stone on 9 June 1968; the church was consecrated on 1 March 1970.

The organ inside was built by a Bavarian workshop and shapes the sound of services. Its warm tone accompanies community events and concerts throughout the year.

The sanctuary sits on the first floor, reached from the ground floor, which holds meeting and community rooms behind large glass walls facing the street and the inner courtyard. The entrance is on Eckenheimer Landstraße at the corner of Neuhofstraße, in Frankfurt's Nordend. The 2012/2013 conversion moved the ground-floor glass walls slightly outward.

The facade blends red brickwork with exposed concrete, creating an unusual visual appearance. This material combination was typical of the 1970s and often catches visitors by surprise.
