Church of the Holy Family, Gothic Revival church in Kaliningrad, Russia.
The Church of the Holy Family is a brick church building in Kaliningrad with Gothic Revival details including pointed arches and tall walls. A distinctive tower rises prominently above the structure, defining its silhouette through strong vertical lines.
The church was built between 1904 and 1907 as a Catholic house of worship in the city then known as Königsberg. Following the Second World War, the building was repurposed and underwent major changes in its later decades.
The space functions today as a concert hall, yet its Gothic forms still announce its origin as a place of worship. Visitors experience how religious architecture and musical performance now share the same walls.
The building is located at Ulitsa Bogdana Khmel'nitskogo 63а and now serves as a concert venue. Visitors should check the schedule ahead of time and can inquire about guided tours or event programming when contacting the venue.
During restoration work in the 1980s, the building received a new organ with 3,600 pipes specifically designed for concert performances. This major installation transformed the interior into a modern performance space while keeping the historic shell intact.
