Dorfkirche Rüsseina, Church building in Rüsseina, Germany.

Dorfkirche Rüsseina is a church building in the Meissen region featuring a medieval east tower and a spacious interior with double wooden galleries. The hall can accommodate roughly 1300 people and combines Gothic and classical architectural styles.

The church was built between 1782 and 1786 as a late-Baroque hall church, replacing a medieval predecessor whose east tower from the 13th or 14th century was kept and fitted into the new structure. Its size reflected the status of Rüsseina as an original parish. The interior was restored in 1886 and the exterior in 1995/96.

The parish was an original parish (Urpfarrei), which explains the size of the church. The pulpit altar of around 1786 places the pulpit and its sounding board between Corinthian columns, with a light marble finish from 1886. Two Rococo candlesticks from 1788 stand on the sandstone altar table.

The church interior is easy to navigate thanks to its open layout with galleries on the sides. Visitors should know that regular services and concerts take place here and often draw people from the surrounding villages.

The pulpit altar of around 1786 places pulpit and sound board between pairs of Corinthian columns under a broken pediment; its light marble finish dates from 1886.
