Tips

Lemmi alias Schlumpf

It is a late classicist church building from the 19th century. St. Thomas was about the geographical center of the densely populated Luisenstadt in Berlin. At the time of its construction, the church with 3,000 places was the largest religious building in Berlin and the St. Thomas congregation with approx. 150,000 members was one of the largest Protestant congregations in the world.
The floor plan of the building is shaped like a Latin cross. In the center there is a 56 meter high dome, in the direction of Mariannenplatz there are two 48 meter high towers.
The name St. Thomas refers to the apostle Thomas.

The Protestant St. Thomas Church was built in 1864-69 according to plans by Friedrich Adler in Luisenstadt. It is considered the most important sacral building of the Schinkel School and is one of the largest churches in Berlin. Architectural features are the double tower portal, the round central room and the brick dome. The division of Berlin also shared the Thomas community.
