Former Lutheran church

In 1824, in the place of the Mediaeval town hall, a brick Neo-Romanesque Lutheran church was built to a design from the workshop of Karl Friedrich Schinkel, one of the outstanding architects of the early 19th c. in Europe. This Lutheran church was closed in the interwar period, and the building was passed to the Orthodox faith to serve as a garrison church from 1927 to 1939. However, for more than a half a century now the building has not been a place of worship, and is presently the home of the Tumult Contemporary Art Foundation.
