Jeremia-Kirche

The Jeremia-Kirche is a modern church building in Berlin's Spandau district, constructed from concrete and distinguished by its hexagonal design principles. The complex comprises the main church, a parsonage, and a kindergarten arranged around a central hexagonal courtyard.

The church opened in 1964 to serve the rapidly growing residential area of Falkenhagener Feld during Berlin's expansion. Its construction responded to the neighborhood's swelling population that required new community facilities.

The congregation chose the prophet Jeremiah as their spiritual patron, a choice reflected in the church's identity and the gatherings held here. This selection shaped how members of the community connected with the building's purpose.

After fire damage in September 2020, the building underwent thorough restoration and reopened in October 2023 with improved energy-efficient systems. Visitors should check in advance what activities or services may be scheduled, as use of the space depends on the church's current programming.

The church tower features a distinctive trapezoidal wall structure with ground-level openings and arched arcades in the bell chamber. This geometric approach gives the tower a memorable profile that sets it apart from conventional church spires.
