St John's Lutheran parish church (Kirkha)

The Evangelical-Lutheran Community was founded in Grodno in 1779 by the German Lutherans who were invited to establish royal manufactories in the city.  After a short time the Community received a 3-storied building of the tavern for craftsmen to pray in.  

Eventually, the tavern was rebuilt as a church & nearby there was allotted a land plot for the first lutheran cemetery in Grodno.

In 1843 the building was reconstructed & there was built a rectory with classrooms. Then a bell tower with a clock typical for Protestantism was added.

The Kirkha received its modern look in the beginning of the XX century, as it was joined with the rectory & a new rectory with a Lutheran school was built. It is interesting that everything was built at the expenses of the Community which consisted at that time of 200 families.
