Gott Dem Erloser Und Den Gottesdiensten Der Reformierten Gewidmet 1753

The establishment of the Georgia-Augusta University of Goettingen by the elector of Hannover and also King of England in 1737 invited several kinds of persons to come here: university professors, craftsmen, students and so on. They all wanted to practice their own religion. That was why the calvinist Albrecht von Haller who came here from Swizzerland as a university professor of Anatomy grounded the reformed community for which he arranged the building of a new suitable Church. It served their special concern of community best by creating a seating like a lecture theatre, leaving free space in the middle.
