Pfarrkirche

The Pfarrkirche is a Lutheran house of worship in Tettau featuring a symmetrical stone facade with tall windows and a distinctive bell tower that marks the town's skyline. The interior displays typical Lutheran design elements organized for services and community gatherings.

This house of worship was built in the 18th century during the Reformation period and reflects how Protestant churches were designed in northern Bavaria at that time. Its structure and materials preserve evidence of the building methods from that era.

The church remains a gathering place for the local Lutheran community, where residents participate in weekly services and seasonal celebrations that connect them to their religious roots. You can see this continuity in how the space is used and cared for by those who worship here.

You can visit the church during regular services or arrange a tour through the parish office. Being protected as a cultural heritage site, the building maintains accessibility and can be viewed from the outside at any time.

The church's Latin name Ad Portam Coeli means 'At the Gate of Heaven' and reflects the theological understanding of churches as spiritual gateways. This classical religious symbolism was intentional in how the building was conceived from its beginning.
