Christuskirche, Protestant church in Dormagen, Germany.
Description
The Christuskirche is a Protestant church building in Dormagen featuring a 33-meter pointed tower as its most visible feature. The exterior walls use Dutch clinker tiles while the interior ceiling is constructed from Carolina Pine wood.
History
The congregation started in 1895 with services held in private homes until the first church building was completed in 1927 based on architect Damm's design. The current building emerged from a competition with 117 entries and was dedicated in 1963.
