Nature reserve

You almost get the impression of being in a dune landscape near the sea. And this isn't surprising, because in prehistoric times, this area was indeed covered by the sea. With a bit of luck, you might even find marine fossils here. 🍀🍀🍀

Christ Church was consecrated on July 2, 1903, as the first Protestant church in Mainz. People sought refuge there during two world wars. In February 1945, its copper dome burned for three days. It was rebuilt – with the blessing Christ as its focal point and center of attention. At the beginning of the new century, its interior was renovated: chairs replaced pews, the altar stands beneath the dome, and the congregation gathers in a large circle around it. The space speaks for itself: "We are all the church." In Christ Church, people pray and sing, experience sorrowful hours and moments of pure joy. Christ Church was built between 1897 and 1903 as the first Protestant church in Mainz, based on plans by the city architect Eduard Kreyßig. At the time, it provided space for all Protestant Christians in Mainz and was seen as a counterpart to the Catholic Cathedral, which Christ Church surpasses by almost half a meter. In February 1945, the church was destroyed by bombs. The unique stained-glass windows, which made the light in the church interior so special, were irretrievably lost. But Christ Church was rebuilt. At the beginning of this century, the church interior was redesigned as you see it today. The altar—a work by the artist Erwin Heerich—was placed in the center. The congregation gathers around this altar for worship.
