Timmendorf Forest Church
With increasing visitor numbers, the first Protestant services were held around 1900, initially in the open air in the forest.

In 1912, a forest chapel was built on this site.

The Ratekau parish looked after the small church, but in 1946, the Timmendorfer Strand parish gained its independence.

The chapel was converted into a forest church between 1963 and 1964 and expanded again in 1982.

The Lutheran services, with their interesting sermon series and rich accompaniment of church music, are well attended and resonate well beyond the town of Timmendorfer Strand.

The works of art in the forest church include stained glass windows by Gunda Haß, "Calming the Storm / Ascension of Christ," and two exhibits by the woodcarver Otto Flath: "The Mourner" and "The Baptism."
In 1998, a new Rohlf organ was consecrated in the Waldkirche (Forest Church).

Church concerts and community discussions with renowned speakers shape community life. In cooperation with the spa administration, the church surprises its guests with a diverse range of events during the summer months.
