Garnisonkirche Oldenburg, Gothic Revival church in Oldenburg, Germany.

The red brick Garnisonkirche rises with pointed arches, tall windows, and a central tower decorated with intricate stone carvings and geometric patterns.

Built between 1901 and 1903 by architect Jürgen Kröger, the church initially served Prussian military regiments following the convention between Prussia and Oldenburg.

Martin Niemöller delivered a significant speech at the church on October 21, 1936, addressing the complex relationship between religious institutions and Nazi Germany.

The church holds regular Sunday services at 10 AM, with reformed worship on the first Sunday of each month and evening Taizé prayers at 6 PM.

The church houses an organ from 1965 by Alfred Führer and maintains five bells cast by Rincker, with the oldest dating back to 1901.
