Evangelische Kirche Lahde stands in Lahde, a district of Petershagen in North Rhine-Westphalia, Germany. The protected monument combines brick with stone detailing. Its integrated west tower rises beside a polygonally enclosed choir, giving the exterior a distinctly neo-Gothic profile. Inside, round pillars carry the cross-ribbed vaults.

Records first mention a church here in 1206, while builders erected the present building between 1892 and 1895. Architect Johann August Kersten designed the present church structure. It retains remarkably complete original furnishings from the construction period, linking the bright interior with its nineteenth-century design. The Furtwängler and Hammer organ dates from 1894. Gebrüder Stockmann restored it in Werl in 1994.

Near the entrance, a twelfth-century tympanum relief presents the hand of God between ornamental bands. A fifteenth-century gable attachment also remains nearby inside. Dating from the second half of that century, it probably originated in a sacrament niche. The organ’s couplings and pedals add another precise detail.
