        The evangelical
        Church in Chomutov
        Establishment, existence and
        demise of a church


        Bohuslav von Lobkowicz built a prayer hall in the castle for the protestants of Komotow. The prayer room was later called the Luther floor. The Protestants called it the Church of the Trinity. The Spittelkirche was also Protestant.
        In 1898 the town council gave the Protestants a nice place at the entrance to the town park for 400 crowns. A neo-Gothic church was built on this site, the Gustav Adolf Church, which was consecrated with a solemn service on September 8, 1899.
        The church was built more than 100 years ago by the master builders, the John brothers, from the lower Badgasse, as if from a childhood building set. The church was a single-nave church with a long nave, a thatched roof and a rectangular presbytery. The gallery was founded on 2 columns with a neo-Gothic organ from 1900. Until 1945 the church belonged to the German Evangelical Church of the Augsburg Faith in Bohemia.
        Like a finger of God pointing to heaven, this beautiful, slender Gothic church stood austere and awe-inspiring at a slight height between the city park, Eskomomptebank at the entrance to Schiesshausgasse and the "Schreittervilla" as a harbinger of the market square. The interior of the church was characterized by clarity and simplicity .
        On 22.8. In 1972 the Czechs blew up the evangelical church in order to build an indoor swimming pool in its place.
