Exulant Church
As Exulantenkirchen are churches in Exulantensiedlungen that of Bohemian exiles were built or in their new home used, respectively. Most of the Protestants from Bohemia emigrated to the neighboring Electorate of Saxony , Franconia or the Mark Brandenburg . There they were integrated into the existing communities or they formed their own exile communities in which exile churches were built.
Today these churches are used as normal parish churches by the parishes of the respective regional church, e.g. B. Evangelical Lutheran Regional Church of Saxony or Evangelical Church Berlin-Brandenburg-Silesian Upper Lusatia .
