Lonely Planet review for Felsenkirche
This prominent Evangelical Lutheran church, dominates Lüderitz from high on Diamond Hill. The church was designed by Albert Bause, who implemented the Victorian influences he'd seen in the Cape. With assistance from private donors in Germany, construction of the church began in late 1911 and was completed the following year. The brilliant stained-glass panel situated over the altar was donated by Kaiser Wilhelm II, while the Bible was a gift from his wife.
