Elias Church, Gothic Revival church in Prenzlauer Berg, Germany.

Elias Church is a basilica without a transept at Senefelderstraße 5 in the Helmholtzkiez of Prenzlauer Berg, designed by Gustav Werner and Fritz Förster. The brick building, clad in clinker, is wedged into a closed perimeter block of flats; its gable front in the forms of Markish brick Gothic has two deep-set pointed-arch portals and five tall lancet windows above a string course. Two towers of unequal height, covered in slate, frame the centre; the lower one holds the stairwell, the square bell tower carries a pyramidal helm whose finial serves as a geodetic point.

A separate daughter congregation, Gethsemane III Ost, was formed on 16 March 1907 because the Gethsemanekirche had become too small. The name after the prophet Elijah was fixed in 1908; the foundation stone was laid on 23 May 1909 and the church was consecrated on 3 July 1910. After war damage the chancel was refashioned in simplified form in 1960. Costly repairs in the 1990s could not be funded, so the church was given up in 2001 and leased for 75 years to the MACHmit! Museum für Kinder, which opened there on 30 August 2003.

The church is named after the prophet Elijah and reflects the religious architecture of the early 20th century. Visitors experience a space that was originally designed for worship, though it now serves different purposes.

The building is easy to reach and its Gothic Revival features are clearly visible from outside. Visitors should know that the church now serves as a cultural venue and its current opening hours and programming should be checked before visiting.

The tower's spire carries a metal rod that serves as a geodetic point, used in surveying. The church is wedged into a closed perimeter block of flats on Senefelderstraße, so only its brick gable front is visible from the street. Since 2003 the building has been leased for 75 years to the MACHmit! Museum für Kinder, which opened there on 30 August 2003.
