Detail InformationEdit
The Neue Kirche (English: New Church), colloquially referred to as the “Deutscher Dom”, is located in Berlin on the Gendarmenmarkt across from Französischer Dom (French Church). Its parish comprised the northern part of the then new quarter of Friedrichstadt, which until then belonged to the parish of the congregations of Jerusalem’s Church.
The Lutheran and Calvinist (in German Reformed Church) congregants used German as their native language, as opposed to the French-speaking Calvinist congregation owning the French Church of Friedrichstadt on the opposite SIDE of Gendarmenmarkt. The congregants’ native language combined with the domed tower earned the church its colloquial naming. The church is not a cathedral in the actual sense of the word.
In 1701-1708 Giovanni Simonetti built the first church after a design of Martin Grünberg. It was the third church in Friedrichstadt, established in 1688, which was a town of princely domination, while the neighbouring old Berlin and Cölln were cities of town privileges. The Prince-Elector originally only provided for a Calvinist congregation, since they – the Hohenzollerns – themselves were Calvinists. But also more and more Lutherans moved in. Therefore in 1708 the New Church became a Calvinist and Lutheran Simultaneum.
