"Mit dem Bau der Evangelischen Christuskirche in Salzburg wurde unmittelbar nach der Gemeindegründung im Jahr 1863 begonnen. Im Jahr 1867 war die Kirche im neugotischen Stil fertiggestellt.

Die Kirche ist aus rötlichem Backstein erbaut, gerahmt von Konglomeratgestein (Untersberger Konglomerat) und Kunststein.

Bis auf kleinere Veränderungen ist sie bis heute im Originalzustand erhalten. Die Kirche ist ein charakteristisches Beispiel für die sorgfältige Umsetzung des Eisenacher Regulativs von 1861."

"The construction of the Protestant Christ Church in Salzburg was started immediately after the church was founded in 1863. In 1867 the church was completed in the Gothic Revival style.

The church is built of reddish brick, framed by conglomerate (Unterberger conglomerate) and artificial stone.

Except for minor changes it is still preserved in its original state. The church is a typical example of the careful implementation of Eisenach Regulative of 1861."
