A Place that Makes Faith Visible
The Propsteikirche is one of the most distinctive church buildings in Potsdam. The neo-Romanesque structure was built between 1867 and 1870 based on designs by August Stüler and Wilhelm Salzenberg and shapes the skyline at Bassinplatz with its tall bell tower. Inside, visitors encounter artworks by Antoine Pesne as well as a Schuke organ with 41 stops. ([potsdam.de](https://www.potsdam.de/de/propsteikirche-st-peter-und-paul))
