This former Evangelical Church was built in 1869 thanks to a ‘magnificent contribution’ from King Friedrich Wilhelm IV of Prussia himself. Sadly, most of the interiors were destroyed during World War II, after which it was patched up by Catholic Poles and renamed. Today it is one of the finest examples of Neo-Gothic architecture in Poland, and boasts a historic organ. Its 70m tower makes it Poznań’s tallest church, and it towered over the neighbourhood until it became dwarfed by the buildings of the Imperial District, just to its west.
