Auferstehungskirche, Lutheran church in eastern Lübeck, Germany.
The Auferstehungskirche is a church building in eastern Lübeck featuring distinctive red brick walls and a prominent steeple that anchors the neighborhood. Its interior contains bright, straightforward spaces arranged around a modern altar area designed for clear sightlines from the congregation.
The building was constructed during the 1950s in the post-war reconstruction period as Lübeck's eastern neighborhoods expanded with new residents. It represents the effort to provide religious spaces for communities rebuilding their lives after wartime destruction.
The church serves as a gathering place for the local evangelical congregation and hosts regular religious services throughout the year. These events have become part of the neighborhood's rhythm and community identity.
The church holds services on Sundays and is open to visitors on weekdays during standard hours. Upon arrival, check any posted notices to ensure your visit does not coincide with a special event or service.
The church interior demonstrates a deliberate restraint in its design language that reflects 1950s ideas about functional modernity. This uncluttered approach allows the space itself to become the focus rather than elaborate decoration.
