St.-Peter-Kirche, Gothic Revival church in Sonneberg, Germany

The St.-Peter-Kirche features a 45-meter double tower facade with sandstone construction and ornate stained glass windows throughout the structure point.

After a city fire destroyed the previous St. Johannis church in 1840, architect Carl Alexander Heideloff designed this new building, completing it in 1845.

The church maintains an active musical program with regular performances of Bach cantatas, orchestral concerts, and seasonal celebrations throughout the year.

The interior space includes three naves, five bays, and galleries with decorative railings, making it suitable for both religious services and musical events.

The church houses bells from the former St. Andreas Church in Berlin, transferred in 1950 after that structure's demolition following war damage.
