Christuskirche, Protestant church building in Kassel, Germany
Christuskirche is a neo-Gothic church building in Kassel featuring a prominent bell tower and decorative stonework on its exterior. The interior includes stained glass windows and memorial plaques honoring community members.
The church was built following the Eisenacher Regulativ of 1861, guidelines for Protestant church construction. It was consecrated in 1867 and reflects the architectural standards of its era.
Three interior paintings show key moments from Protestant history and belief. The works reflect how faith shaped the design and purpose of this place for its community.
The church is accessible through the main entrance and visitors can view the interior spaces without difficulty. The vestibule area displays commemorative elements that provide context about the building.
The building was among the first in the region to use Portland cement, visible in the window surrounds. This material choice was forward-thinking for the time and demonstrates construction innovation.
