Description
Lutheran Church is an Evangelical Lutheran (now Baptist) church in Lutsk; architectural monument, located at Luteranska Street, 1, in the historical and cultural reserve "Old Lutsk".
The Lutheran Church appeared in Lutsk in 1906. At that time, it was the main temple for the Lutheran community - German colonists who lived in Volyn in the 19th and 20th centuries gathered there. The slender building was built in the neo-gothic style fashionable for Western Europe. Bricks were used both for facing and for interior works. The facade of the building is light yellow. A shining gilded cross crowns the central spire covered with copper.
The church functioned for a short time. First came the Soviet authorities, then the Second World War. With the events of World War II, the shrine fell into disrepair. During the USSR, the temple building belonged to various institutions, mainly the archive. The temple was handed over to the Baptist community on the site of Ukraine's independence. She restored the church, now recognized as an architectural monument located in the historical and cultural reserve. The "House of the Gospel" is in this building today. And the Lutheran community settled in a building near the church - in the Pastor's House.
Now the shrine is an architectural monument, the silhouette of which occupies an essential compositional and aesthetic place in the general background of the Lutsk Reserve.
The Lutheran Church was built in the Neo-Gothic brick style. It is a one-nave building with a high bell tower above the entrance. The interior traditionally has a narthex, choirs, nave (nave), and apse. To the left of the altar is a preaching pulpit on a raised platform. The altar, located in the apse, has an arena structure to accommodate the choir. The church does not have an organ.
The church occupies an important place in the compositional completeness of the square in front of it and Cathedral Street (the main east-west compositional direction of the reserve), at the opposite end of which is the Entrance Tower of the Lubart Castle. The tall belfry and the spire of the kirkhe play a crucial aesthetic role in the overall panorama of the Old Town.
