Kirche Zur Heimat

You are standing before a striking example of post-war modern architecture, the Kirche Zur Heimat. Designed by Peter and Wilhelm Lehrecke in 1956, this Lutheran church in Zehlendorf embodies the spirit of a renewing era. Notice the clean lines and interplay of forms characteristic of this architectural style. The connection of the hall church with the standalone bell tower through a covered pergola is not only functional but adds a harmonious balance to the ensemble. This church is part of a protected architectural ensemble of the former Church University, highlighting its significance in Berlin's architectural history. It's a place of calm and reflection, radiating a special dignity in its simplicity.
