Protestant Church Wilnsdorf

The Protestant Church (Evangelische Kirche) in Wilnsdorf, North Rhine-Westphalia, Germany, was completed in 1913.

After a period of plans and rejections beginning in 1904, it was built on a design by Gustav Mucke [de] from 1911.

It is built in Jugendstil of bossage stones (Bossenquadermauerwerk), with a steeple integrated at one side of the facade.

[5] The church became a listed historic monument in 1977, as a characteristic building in Jugendstil of the period.

[2] The centenary of the church was celebrated in 2013, beginning the service with the same song, "Tut mir auf die schöne Pforte" (Open the beautiful gate for me), and using the same text for the sermon as in the service for the consecration,[3] which is also shown in big letters in the altar area: "Herr, ich hab lieb die Stätte deines Hauses und den Ort, da deine Ehre wohnt."
