Friedenskirche

The Friedenskirche is a Methodist church in Germany with plain, friendly architecture. Its quiet presence invites a second look, and people have gathered here for nearly a century. Sunday services anchor the week, and the story behind them stretches back much further.

That story began in 1863 with a group called the Evangelische Gemeinschaft. It first met in the smaller Salemskirche nearby. In 1929 the growing community moved into this building. By 1968 the merged communities had become the Evangelisch-methodistische Gemeinde. A choir rehearses here, and concerts and choral events fill the calendar. House groups meet, children have their own activities during services, and the church is wheelchair accessible.

Since 2003, solar panels on the roof have turned daylight into electricity. The proceeds support aid projects in distant countries. Closer to home, a Spring Fair returns each March. Clothes, jewellery, homemade cakes and coffee draw young and old together.
