Mor-Afrem-Kirche

The concrete structure features a 33-meter bell tower and a glass-steel concrete facade facing the Mierendorffplatz square in Berlin.

Built between 1964 and 1966 by architect Alfons Boklage as a Roman Catholic church, the building was acquired by the Syrian Orthodox community in 2005.

The church maintains the Syrian Orthodox religious traditions while integrating contemporary German architectural elements in its design and construction methods.

The church complex includes a community house, a courtyard, and a main hall with natural stone flooring and wooden ceiling illuminated by large windows.

Four bronze bells cast in 1965 remain in the tower, bearing inscriptions that reflect both Catholic and Orthodox Christian traditions.
