Christuskirche, Modern church building in Wolfsburg, Germany
Christuskirche is a modern church building in Wolfsburg with a cross-shaped floor plan and tall windows throughout. A limestone facade and an octagonal tower with four clock faces define its exterior appearance.
Construction started in autumn 1950 with financial backing from Volkswagen. It became the first solid-built Protestant church that Wolfsburg had since its founding.
The name references Christ and shapes how people experience the space inside today. Visitors can feel the simple, modern design of the interior, which encourages quiet reflection.
The space seats around 680 people and is used regularly for services and performances. You should check ahead for visiting hours, as access may vary depending on events taking place.
The bell tower holds historical bells, including one from the early 15th century that originally came from Silesia. This old bell connects the modern church to a longer past.
