St.-Elisabeth-Kirche, Catholic parish church in Harvestehude, Hamburg, Germany

St.-Elisabeth-Kirche is a Catholic parish church built in 1926 to designs by Heinrich Renard and Jos. van Geisten, set on two narrow townhouse plots on Oberstraße in Harvestehude. Its tan stone facade carries restrained Expressionist decoration, including a relief of Elisabeth of Thuringia's rose miracle above a tall mullioned window. An asymmetrical square tower with a green copper cupola rises on the right, and the roofline fits the neighbouring houses.

St. Elisabeth was built in 1926 to designs by Heinrich Renard and Jos. van Geisten on two narrow townhouse plots on Oberstraße. In 2001 the Hamburg heritage office listed the church at Oberstraße 67 together with the adjoining parish hall at Hochallee 61 as an ensemble. To fund restructuring in the Archdiocese of Hamburg, the parish sold the neighbouring rectory at the corner of Hochallee and Oberstraße; its rooms, including the kindergarten, were moved into a single-storey new building erected in the rectory garden in 2006.

The parish is named after Elisabeth of Thuringia, whose legend of the rose miracle is depicted in the facade decor. The church remains the main church of the Roman Catholic parish of St. Elisabeth Hamburg, and the adjacent Catholic School Hochallee, founded in 1927, continues as a state-recognised private school.

The church sits at Oberstraße 67, next to the parish hall at Hochallee 61, near the Hochallee and Innocentiapark. It is built on two narrow townhouse plots and adjoins the neighbouring buildings on both sides, so the entrance is easy to miss from the street. The 1951 Beckerath organ was rebuilt in 2020 with 52 registers and a double console.

The church was built in 1926 to plans by Heinrich Renard and Jos. van Geisten on two narrow townhouse plots, so it joins the neighbouring buildings on both sides and matches their eaves height. Only the asymmetric tower and the stone cladding set it apart; the facade carries restrained Expressionist decoration, including the legend of Elisabeth of Thuringia's rose miracle.
