The Nikodemuskirche (official name Nikodemus-Kirche) in the Nansenstrasse in the Berlin district of Neukölln was founded in 1912–1913 by Fritz Gottlobektiven. In the synthesis of elements of the neo-renaissance and the art nouveau already the first modern one appears. The foundation stone was laid on June 22, 1912, the inauguration on June 10, 1913. During an air raid on February 26, 1945, the church was burned down, but the parish hall was prescribed. Reconstruction began in 1954. On October 28, 1956, Bishop Otto Dibelius re-inaugurated the “new Nicodemus Church”, half of which is a listed building.



The last German Rixdorf is called in the age of industrialization from a village community to a large metropolitan community, as well as tenement blocks from the ground and masses of people drawn to Rixdorf. The Protestant parish of Rixdorf, which after the renaming of the city was called Evangelical parish of Neukölln, became with over 200,000 members to one of the administration in Germany. This parish, divided into five main districts according to the number of its churches, was preserved until 1948, when each main district became independent. So does the Nicodemus Church.



The history of the Nicodemus Church can be traced back to 1904, when Franz Schwechten owned Reuterplatz and a domed building for 1,100 people. This building to beautify the district should belong to the "Peter and Paul Church". The interests in building the church have turned out well, but in 1908 the congregation owns the concept of legal monumental construction, according to the prospect of a cheaper solution.



In January 1909, the small plot of land in Nansenstrasse was only 25 meters long and 35 meters deep. The same land for the Nicodemus and the Philipp Melanchthon Church will continue to be bought as the expensive Nicodemus Church, the same wars that will be different. The construction costs for the church with 600 seats in the parish hall between only 260,000 marks (today: around 1,448,000 euros). The Berlin consistory, dissatisfied with the draft, demanded "to let the ecclesiastical character in the way and the building stand out more". This request relatives from the community for lack of money. The original name for the church on Reuterplatz was given to "Peter and Paul" by Nicodemus. The only signs of these rights still visible today are the two portal figures of the Nicodemus Church, the apostles Peter and Paul. After the Second World War, the church was temporarily restored in 1949. In 1957 the tower clock will be restarted. In 1972–1973 the church became a political roofing.



The community center built into the row of houses, which on the asymmetrically arranged tower hardly belongs to the front building of a residential building, is part of a single unit with the church in the courtyard. The parish hall has meeting rooms, the parish apartment and the sextonry. The three-aisled hall church, the side aisles are reduced to aisles, has a rectangular choir niche and a sacristy annex. The tower, its portal and group of windows on the first floor are sculptural, has an offense bell storey in a richer structure with pilaster strips, stylish parts and gables. Some of them have a tent roof with an obelisk-like tip. The tower concerns three cast steel bells that were used by the Bochumer Verein in 1912.



The interior of the church has a starry sky in the net vault. The organ occupation on the gallery above the entrance to the nave. In the middle of the room by the chandelier, a wooden crucifix designed after the altar stand at Josef Rauch's, is now in the tower entrance to the church. The altarpiece, which depicts a nocturnal conversation between Jesus and Nicodemus, faithfully fell victim to the bombs on February 26, 1945, which after the First World War were commemorated by heroes in the chancel, denatentendlendenml.



In 1954 the reconstruction of the church began. The reconstruction work on the church, which was badly damaged by the war, lasted until 1956. The church hall has a coffered ceiling. The Schuke organ is now in a side niche. The glass painter Günther Johl portrayed the Christian story of creation on eight church windows. The sculptor Waldemar Otto created two altar candle holders, in the baptismal font lid and in the stand cross for the altar. Stones from the old Kaiser Wilhelm Memorial Church were used for the altar and the font. In 1967 the church had to be repainted. To increase acoustics, the pulpit was preferred.
