Friedenskirche, Lutheran church building in Gohlis district, Leipzig, Germany.

The brick structure features an octagonal steeple constructed with yellowish-brown bricks and displays Gothic Revival architectural elements throughout its three-nave rectangular layout.

Built between 1871 and 1873 following architect Hugo Altendorff's design, the church emerged from a competition that emphasized modest rural architectural characteristics.

The church transformed from a traditional worship space into a youth-focused venue in 2016, serving as a central point for community gatherings and exhibitions.

Located near the historical village square of Gohlis, the church maintains regular opening hours and hosts various events throughout the year.

The construction budget was limited to 30,000 talers, resulting in a functional design that prioritized local materials and essential liturgical elements.
