Friedenskirche is a Lutheran church in Stuttgart, where neo-Romanesque origins meet postwar concrete architecture. The first building rose between 1890 and 1892 under architect Conrad Dollinger. Its double choir, narrow gallery, wooden columns, and central tower shaped the earlier interior. Bombing on 19 October 1944 left only the tower and enclosing walls standing.

After wartime destruction, services moved into a remodelled hall within the parish centre while the ruins remained. In 1959, the parish council chose reconstruction, and architect Eberhard Hübner won the following competition. Completed in 1966, the concrete church became Stuttgart’s first church built with that material, featuring a flat roof and metal-capped tower.

Richard Rensch’s pipe organ gives the church a musical focus and supports its role as a concert venue. A Korean parish and a Nambu parish also use the building. Monthly gospel choir performances add another sound to this enduring community space.
