Guided Story

Take a moment to admire the intricate Gothic Revival features of the Petrus Church. Built between 1897 and 1898, this Protestant landmark stands proudly in Lichterfelde as a protected architectural heritage monument. The pointed arches and detailed decorations of the façade reflect the era when its foundation stone was laid on May 27, 1897. The church suffered damage during Allied air raids in 1944, but it was lovingly restored between 1955 and 1956. Notice the care taken to return it to its former glory. Just a few meters north, you'll find the cultural hub of Kultur in der Petruskirche, worth a visit while you're here.
