history

The Nikodemuskirche is located in Hanover's Heideviertel and is a simple, functional sacred building that was built in 1962/63. Originally the building was designed as a community hall. A separate church was planned, but was not built. Originally the area of ​​the community belonged to the Aegidienkirche , since 1747 to the garden church, since 1873 to the Petrikirche Kleefeld. 1962 followed with the Nicodemuskirche a separate church building.

There is a partnership with the Luther community in Radebeul .

On the square in front of the church is a sculpture by the artist Hilko Schomerus , which depicts Bible texts from John 3 on its four pages. There are panels with explanations next to the sculpture.
