The Martin Luther-Kirche church was built in 1833-1877 in Dresden in the center of the small Martin-Luther-Platz square. This is the Evangelical Lutheran Church.

Martin Luther's church seems simply gigantic compared to neighboring buildings. Also, like most Protestant churches of that period, the church is distinguished by a mixture of neo-Gothic and Neo-Romanesque elements. Old stained glass windows depict scenes from the life of Jesus.

Once here, you can climb the tower and enjoy the beautiful and unusual view of Dresden.
