Hoffnungskirche, Lutheran church in Westrhauderfehn, Germany
The Hoffnungskirche features classical architectural elements with a prominent tower reaching 53.5 meters, making it the tallest church tower in East Frisia.
The church construction started in 1848 following designs by Hanover architect Ludwig Hellner, with the tower addition completed in 1885 by master mason Schumacher.
The church interior displays a model ship named 'Hoffnung', reflecting the community's connection to maritime traditions and seafaring heritage.
The church welcomes visitors daily from Easter until Reformation Day between 9:00 AM and 6:00 PM, offering free admission throughout the year.
The baptismal font, installed during Christmas 1886, features a silver bowl held by an angel sculpture, representing a distinctive element of the church interior.
