St. Matthäus, Lutheran church in southern Erlangen, Germany

The rectangular building made of light Jura limestone extends 53 meters in length, 15 meters in width, and reaches 12.5 meters in height.

The church construction started in 1957 under architect Gustav Gsaenger from Munich, and the consecration ceremony took place on April 3, 1960.

The interior accommodates 900 seats, including galleries, with the altar area and organ positioned at the southern end elevated by several steps.

The church office, located at Emil-Kränzlein-Str. 4, operates Monday through Thursday with specific morning and afternoon hours for community services.
