Located in the city's historic center, Christuskirche represents an example of Gothic Revival architecture, built between 1907 and 1910 and accented with Art Nouveau elements. The church boasts a spire made from quartz sandstone, while part of its roof and three bronze bells were sent from Germany. The stained glass windows, a gift from Emperor Wilhelm II, remain the building's major feature. Christuskirche is just one of the many highlights you can arrange to see using our , world travel planner Edition.

  • Easy parking for the town (someone will always offer to mind your car for a small amount of money); church was nice to see, but that's about it.

  • Very beautiful church and you can see the German influence with the architecture. In the central business district area.

  • Historic gem perched in the city. Christ Church is situated in an area concentrated with other popular tourist attractions such as Independence Memorial Museum and Tintenpalast. I have never been inside, however lovely to admire from the outside. It is kind of in the middle of the road allowing one to admire it from different angles.
  • German Architecture, the zone that is located the Christuskirche is nice except there are vagabonds asking for money and they not allow enjoy the walk through the streets of Windhoek’s town, even after have them some money they want more or take you to the supermarket to buy food for them, they are very young but looks like they don’t want to work.
