Lutheran Church, Novocherkassk

The church is considered to be an architectural monument of cultural heritage of regional importance.

[1] In Novocherkassk, just as well as in the entire European part of Russia, since the 18th century had been living many Germans who were invited to settle there.

At the end of the 19th century, in order to solve this problem in Novocherkassk, the local authorities decided to designate a piece of land in the city for the construction of a Lutheran church.

The church was constructed in 1898 on the project of architect Nikolai Ivanovich Roller in Neo-Gothic style, which was typical for Germany.

[2][3] Before the October Revolution, the church had not only been a place of worship: it was also an important cultural center of the city.
