Former Reformed Church
The former Reformed Church, which dates from the end of the 17th century, is the fifth church on this site. The church was destroyed during the air raids on Wuppertal during the Second World War and rebuilt in the 1950s. In 1953, an upper floor was created for the YMCA by inserting a false ceiling. In 2002, the interior of the church was cut in half and a café was set up in the front part as a meeting place. Since then, the church has been called CityKirche Elberfeld.
