Built to accommodate three merged parishes whose earlier 1791 church had become too small, the Protestant Church in Wilnsdorf, North Rhine-Westphalia, was completed in 1913 to a design by architect Gustav Mucke. Rendered in Jugendstil—the German Art Nouveau style—the building features bossage stone masonry with a steeple integrated into one side of its façade. Seating 540 people upon its consecration on 20 April 1913, the church retained liturgical elements from its predecessor, including the placement of organ, pulpit, and altar. Its original instrument, built by Paul Faust of Barmen with twelve stops, was augmented in 1988 by a new organ with twenty-two stops. Recognized as a listed monument in 1977 for its characteristic Jugendstil character, the church later became the principal house of worship for the merged Reformed parish when Rödgen and Wilnsdorf united in 2011.
