Neanderkirche, Dusseldorf

Neanderkirche was built in 1684 as the first Reformist church in the city. Later in 1916 it was renamed in honour of Joachim Neander, who was a song writer from the 17th century. The building itself was built in early Baroque style with a simplified façade. Although members of the reformed church obtained to rights to their own church, they were not liked by the rest of the citizens. That is why from the very beginning, it was built in such a way that it was not visible from the street. But nowadays, this church has acquired impressive proportions.
