Auferstehungskirche Dresden-Plauen, Dresden

The Church of the Resurrection is an Evangelical Lutheran church in Dresden, in the southwestern district of Plauen. A church building on the same site is documented since the 15th century and is assumed since the 13th century. In the course of time, the church was expanded and fundamentally renovated several times. It received its present appearance during the reconstruction in 1900-1902, which practically amounted to a new building, and during the renovation in 1996-1999. Externally, it is designed in the style of the Neo-Renaissance, while the interior is dominated by wood and stone sculpture in the Art Nouveau style. However, significant parts of the Art Nouveau interior were removed during a renovation in 1953. The church grounds include the abandoned churchyard and, since 1912, a parish hall with rooms for parish work and administration as well as apartments.
