The Evangelical Church Brokstedt is a church building in Brokstedt in the Steinburg district . The neo-Gothic hall church in the shape of a cross with a semicircular apse was built from 1899 according to plans by the Hamburg architect Hugo Groothoff .

In terms of style, the Brokstedt Church is similar to the churches previously planned by Groothoff in Aukrug-Innien and Wankendorf . The dimensions and proportions of the rural church buildings he subsequently built in Hamburg-Eidelstedt and Hennstedt are also roughly the same.

The parish of Brokstedt was founded in 1899 and half was spun off from the parishes of Bad Bramstedt and Kellinghusen . The parish has around 2200 parishioners from 7 villages. The church is equipped with a Paschen organ (2 manuals, full pedal, 12 registers) and is located in the center of the community.
