Frederick’s Church and Red House

Frederick’s Church was built in 1699 by the Calvinist community that had moved to the city. It was named after the Prussian king Frederick the Great, as Prussia had subsidised the construction. Since 1744 the church was ready for use. Johann Georg Baumgratz designed the church as a simple hall building with a three-sided choir, a sober end façade and a roof spire with bells. After 1945 war destructions, the interior was remodelled.

The former school and parish house of the Reformist community neighbours in the north, while a civic building from 1624, the Red House, is used today as a Protestant church house, adjoins in the south.
