Stained glass and sculpture

Adolf Bielefeldt

Stained glass windows and sculpture in the church of the Savior in Sopot. The neo-baroque church of the Savior in Sopot was built in 1913-1919 according to the design of the Gdańsk architect Adolf Bielefeldt (1876-1934) on the site of the Peace chapel. The cornerstone for the construction of the new church was laid in 1913, but the outbreak of World War I stopped the works, which were resumed after the end of the war. During World War II, the church was damaged and lost some modest furnishings. It is the church of the Evangelical-Augsburg parish in Gdańsk with its seat in Sopot and the bishop of the Pomeranian-Greater Poland diocese of the Evangelical-Augsburg Church in Poland.
