Saint Matthew's Church

The Saint Matthew's Church features a curved design with six tall columns supporting the roof structure near Nußbaumstraße in Munich.

Originally built in 1833 as Munich's first Protestant church, the current structure was reconstructed in 1953 following demolition during the city's infrastructure changes.

The interior houses a marble mosaic crafted by Angela Gsaenger, daughter of architect Gustav Gsaenger who designed the church building.

Located at Nußbaumstraße 1, the church maintains regular services and remains open to visitors interested in religious architecture in Munich.

The church's distinctive curved architecture earned local nicknames including 'God's bathtub' and 'Luther's roller coaster' among Munich residents.
