The Christ Church, built in 1882 in the neo-Gothic style, is one of the few half-timbered churches of the 19th century. It is the place of worship of the Independent Evangelical Lutheran Church of Melsungen. The last major renovation took place in 2000. melsunger-land.de/media/attraktionen/christuskirche

When you enter the church, the chancel immediately catches your eye, which is highlighted by the colored windows. The crucifix on the altar was designed by the Kassel artist Hermann Pohl and differs from the traditional depictions of the crucified Christ. The focus is not on the suffering, but on the victorious Son of God.

The church has been redesigned several times in its more than 100-year history. The last major renovation took place in 2000.

The pictures on the gallery are by the artist Fiorini from Perugia/Todi (Italy).
