The Bergkirche (Mountain Church) is one of four main Protestant churches in Wiesbaden, the capital of Hesse, Germany. It was completed in 1879 in Gothic Revival based on a design by Johannes Otzen. The church is focused on having the altar and pulpit close to the congregation, following Luther's concept of a universal priesthood. It also serves as a concert venue for church music.
