St.-Petri-Kirche

St.-Petri-Kirche is a church building in Döhren-Wülfel, Hanover, constructed in 1949 following modern architectural principles. The structure displays red brick walls inside, while its exterior features gray plaster and incorporates stones from the earlier building.

The predecessor building was destroyed in 1943 during World War II. Architect Otto Bartning subsequently designed this replacement, which was completed in 1949.

The church serves the local Protestant community as a place for regular worship and prayer gatherings. Visitors can observe the everyday religious life of a modern parish here.

The church is located in the southeastern part of Hanover and is accessible by public transportation or car. Visitors can walk around the building and explore its surroundings in a calm setting.

The sandstone altar from the earlier church building was incorporated into the new construction and shapes the interior of today's church. Other preserved objects such as a baptismal font and a medieval tower show the continuity at this location.
