The Garrison Church was a Protestant church in the historic centre of Potsdam, Germany, built by order of King Frederick William I of Prussia to plans by Philipp Gerlach from 1730 to 1735. A major work of Prussian Baroque architecture, it rose almost 90 metres, making it the city's tallest building and part of its famous "Three Churches View." Damaged in British bombing during the Second World War, it was demolished by East German authorities in 1968.
