German Church, Lutheran church in Gamla Stan, Stockholm, Sweden
The German Church features a 96-meter copper-covered steeple with brick construction, while the interior displays white-vaulted ceilings and marble flooring.
German merchants established this church in 1642 under architect Hans Jacob Christler's design, following initial services at Riddarholmen Church since 1573.
The church maintains its position as the main gathering place for Stockholm's German-speaking community, conducting regular Lutheran services and musical performances.
The church opens its doors to visitors daily, offering guided tours that explain the architectural elements, including the ten-meter Baroque altar.
The carillon bells of the German Church ring four different melodies each day at specific times, marking the hours across Gamla Stan.
