Christuskirche, Lutheran church in Rome, Italy
The Christuskirche features round arches, thick walls, and decorative arcading elements that exemplify the Romanesque Revival architectural style of the early 20th century.
The construction of the church, completed in 1922 under architect Franz Schwechten's direction, marked the establishment of the first Protestant church in predominantly Catholic Rome.
The church serves as a central meeting point for German-speaking residents in Rome, offering regular Lutheran services and maintaining connections with the local community.
Located at coordinates 41.908889 latitude and 12.491667 longitude, the church welcomes visitors for religious services and architectural tours throughout the week.
In 1983, Pope John Paul II visited Christuskirche for an ecumenical service, marking the first time a Pope entered a Lutheran church in Rome.
