The church on Hohenzollernplatz is a Protestant church in the Berlin district of Wilmersdorf. It was built from 1930 to 1934 according to designs by Ossip Klarwein from the Fritz Högers architectural office and was gilded as the main work of German expressionist architecture. The church burned down due to the war damage in 1943. In the process, the same elements of the interior were lost. The church was largely installed by 1961. But it was not until the demanding renovation from 1990 to 1991 that the last war remark was adopted. The church is a listed building.



In the parish of Berlin - Wilmersdorf there were only two churches until 1933: the church on Wilhelmsaue and the church on Hochmeisterplatz. When the Auenkirche was inaugurated in 1897, the former Deutsch-Wilmersdorf, which only received town charter in 1906, already had over 10,000 inhabitants. The Grunewald Church was inaugurated in 1904, and the Hochmeisterkirche in 1910.



In 1920 Wilmersdorf was incorporated into Greater Berlin, Schmargendorf, Grunewald and Halensee were n districts of the Wilmersdorf district. In the 50,000 or so parishes that the Berlin-Wilmersdorf parish established in 1927. The architect and church builder Otto Bartning made two preliminary drafts. After the architectural competition due to the award committee, none of the official equivalents.



The parish then awarded the contract on June 26, 1928, shown by the Schmargendorf painter Ernst Christian Pfannschmidt and his son Ernst-Erik, a Fritz Höger, who belong to the Hamburg office of Ernst-Erik as an architect. This content belongs: “In the technical university, Höger heard one of his many lectures with his“ innate great rhetoric and leadership ”. I managed to get Ernst-Erik Pfannschmidt, through my father, to have Höger make a deservedly voluntary draft. "



The award of the contract and the uncompetitive architects Höger concerns in trade magazines are important because the design would not correspond to the general taste of church visitors. Höger had consequences with a plan of Klarwein, which Höger had contractually under name. Klarwein, who has been with Höger since 1921, was his main design architect, but only publishes his social work under Höger's name.







“Shortly before construction began, Klarwein came to Berlin and moved to Halensee at Joachim-Friedrich-Strasse 47, about 150 meters from the church. His final tour in Berlin already indicates that he also looked after this building. "

The foundation stone was laid on September 30, 1930, and the church was consecrated on March 19, 1933. The last superintendent Diestel took the church consecration before and after the building complex as a "work of art for all times".

In 1934 Klarwein emigrated with his wife and son Mati to the Mandate Palestine, because Serie had no future as Jews in Germany.



The church work united in the new adult nun youth associations, a women's aid and a nurses' station. Due to the fighting in the Second World War and over Berlin, the church ensemble was hit by an explosive bomb and other incendiary bombs on November 22, 1943 and burned out very quickly. The large organs from Furtwängler and Hammer were also worked on. Everything wooden, especially the seating, is verbender. The services were held in the church on Nassauische Strasse, in a room in the parish hall. The same as yet not honored rooms were helped by the High Command of the Navy as an emergency hospital. When the Red Army marched into Berlin-Wilmersdorf (April 30, 1945) there were wounded German soldiers living here who were then transported away as prisoners of war.



The community area Wilmersdorf Nord only became independent as a parish on Hohenzollernplatz in 1946; to the catchment area fears around 13,000 souls. After the end of the war the church was given a temporary roof and the community hall in the basement was made usable again. The last debris of the war disappeared in 1953, two years later the church at Hohenzollernplatz was re-inaugurated. In 1956 the office wing with apartments on Nassauische Strasse was also relocated. You need to join new equipment.



The winding, 249 m² war is not easy to build on. It belongs to the church, parish hall, parish hall with confirmation and club rooms, nurses' station, youth home and six apartments for clergy and church employees. The church is located in the outskirts of Hohenzollernplatz, in the parish hall and in the rectory on Nassauische Strasse. All common common rights to hear, the parish hall was relocated a few meters deep under the church. The base of the main room of the church is 40 meters long and 14 meters wide. The height is 20 meters. The ten-meter porch is 18 meters high. The interior of the concrete skeleton structure is made up of thirteen pointed arched reinforced concrete girders.



The 66 meter high tower, the slightly conical right from bottom to top, stands in the visual axes of Fasanenstrasse and Nikolsburger Strasse, Hohenzollerndamm and Düsseldorfer Strasse as well as Nassauische Strasse. Cast steel bells that were cast with the Bochum Association in 1959 are heard in the tower.
