The Lutherkirche is a listed church in Uhlandstraße 2/4 in the town of Neutraubling in the district of Regensburg ( Bavaria ). The community is part of the deanery of Regensburg in the parish of Regensburg the Evangelical Lutheran Church in Bavaria .

The church with its unusual turquoise paint was built by Adolf Abel in 1955/56 to create a Protestant church for the newly founded expellees community of Neutraubling, which was only founded in 1951 on the site of the Obertraubling military airfield (1936–38), which was destroyed in the Second World War .

The central building, developed from triangular and pentagonal shapes on a Y-shaped floor plan, is a concrete grid structure with a flat tent roof. In 1959/60 the church was extended by Abel with a bell tower with a concrete grid and a community hall with a pent roof.
