Philipp-Melanchthon-Kirche, Protestant church building in Alten, Germany
The Philipp-Melanchthon-Kirche stands in Dessau-Roßlau with a modern architectural design incorporating traditional Protestant church elements and a prominent bell tower.
The original church structure from 1743 served the community for 150 years until 1899, when the current building was constructed and dedicated.
The church received its name in May 1989 during the inauguration of a new Jehmlich organ containing 90 pipes and 13 registers.
The church complex includes a parish house completed in 2010, offering spaces for community gatherings, choir practices, and private celebrations.
During construction of the parish house in April 2010, workers uncovered foundations of a former rectory from the 1950s beneath the building site.
