Ev. Kirche Leverkusen-Mitte (Evangelical Church of Leverkusen-Mitte) is a Protestant church building located in the city center of Leverkusen, Germany. Originally consecrated in 1962, it replaced an earlier church destroyed during World War II. The building itself is notable for its modern architectural design, featuring a prominent steeple and large stained-glass windows. It serves as the central parish church for the Evangelical community in Leverkusen and hosts regular religious services alongside cultural events including concerts. The acoustics within the church are considered favorable for musical performances, particularly those involving wind instruments and choral works due to its reverberant space. The church plays an active role in the local community beyond its religious functions.
