Evangelisch Lutherse Kerk

Leeuwarden, NL

The church building of the Evangelical Lutheran community in Leeuwarden was built in 1774 to a design by the Roman Catholic city architect Van Nooteboom (1733 - 1812), with financial support from mainly the community of Amsterdam. The memorial stone in the front facade is a reminder of this. The simple building, a hall church with galleries, replaces an older church from 1681, financed by Andreas Moeller, whose funeral plaque still hangs in the church. The church was restored in 1994.

Evangelisch Lutherse Kerk

Bussum, NL

At the end of December 1901, the Evangelical Lutheran community of Naarden-Bussum was founded, at that time still part of the main community of Weesp. Previously, since 1640-1645, a Lutheran community had existed in Naarden, which, however, went out of business during the nineteenth century. In 1912, the newly founded community became independent. Initially, they had worshipped in the Concordia building in Bussum. However, they wanted their own church building at a central location between Naarden and Bussum, and so a piece of land was purchased, located between the Mecklenburglaan and the Brinklaan. A new church was built on this in 1903, designed by architect Nierop from Maartensdijk. The contractor was Mr. Jurriaan from Naarden. The building was consecrated on 12 April 1903. The church was in its original form a cruciform church in Gothic style with an apse on the Brinklaan side, a roof turret at the crossing and a vaulted ceiling inside. The building blended harmoniously into the surrounding residential area.

Evangelisch Lutherse Kerk

Dordrecht, NL

Originally this was a chapel of the Blindeliedengasthuis, which was demolished in 1629. The Lutheran Community, founded in Dordrecht in 1618, was offered the church building by the community in 1689. The simple, late Gothic chapel had been used in the intervening years as a city coffin house and for storing peat. In the seventeenth century, the front and side facades of this national monument were provided with a layer of plaster, which was partly removed during the restoration of 1963. The Wolfferts organ from 1779, with parts from 1733, has two keyboards. The pulpit is in Louis XVI style.

Evangelisch-Lutherische Schlosskapelle

Müglitztal, DE

The Baroque castle chapel in the Schloss Weesenstein received its solemn consecration on June 23, 1741 as a private chapel of the king of Saxony. In 1870, King John of Saxony handed the chapel to the citizens: he had himself set up a small Catholic chapel in the former washhouse.
