Marienkirche, Protestant church in Dessau-Roßlau, Germany.
The Marienkirche stands as a three-nave hall church constructed from red bricks, featuring an ambulatory choir and a western tower in the city center.
Originally consecrated in 1263 as a Romanesque church, Prince Ernst of Anhalt-Dessau initiated the construction of a new Gothic building in 1506.
The church transformed from a Catholic to a Protestant place of worship in 1534 and now serves as a cultural venue for concerts and theater performances.
The Marienkirche functions as a public event space managed by the Dessau-Roßlau city administration, offering regular guided tours and cultural programming.
Following destruction in 1945, the reconstruction preserved the unplastered walls and replaced the original ribbed vault with a wooden flat ceiling.
