Konkordienkirche, Baroque church in Karlsruhe, Germany.
Konkordienkirche is a Protestant church building with baroque architecture in Karlsruhe featuring a four-apsed design and central tower. The interior is structured by an encircling gallery and displays classical baroque elements throughout.
The church was constructed between 1719 and 1722 by Friedrich von Batzendorf and served as the central religious building for the newly founded city. It played a key role in establishing spiritual life in the urban development.
The church serves as a central gathering space for Protestant worship and regularly hosts musical performances featuring its two organs. Visitors can experience sacred music and classical concerts that bring the interior to life.
The building stands next to city hall in central Karlsruhe and is easily accessible on foot. The former crypt now houses an exhibition space that invites visitors to explore inside.
The structure was built using a timber-frame construction covered in plaster instead of traditional stone masonry. This choice significantly reduced the overall construction costs.
