Johanneskirche

The Johanneskirche is a Protestant church building in Berlin-Frohnau with a rectangular tower and Nordic-influenced architectural style. Its facade uses alternating bands of light and dark brown brick that visually emphasize the structure.

The church was constructed beginning in 1935 under architects Walter and Johannes Krüger, with its opening in 1936. New bells were installed in 1957 after the originals were removed during World War II.

The interior stained glass windows display modern artistic interpretations of creation themes grounded in regional traditions. They function as a cohesive artistic statement that shapes how visitors experience the space.

An elevator in the left tower section connects the entrance level with the community hall and upper church area. This makes navigation straightforward for visitors who need accessible routes through the building.

Three bronze bells cast in 1957 by the Petit & Gebr Edelbrock foundry define the acoustic character of the space today. They mark the post-war reconstruction period after the originals were lost during conflict.
