The Church of Martin Luther in Chorzów is one of the two Protestant churches in the city (the other one is the church of Elisabeth). The building was erected in the late nineteenth century. The first Protestant church services were held in Chorzów (starting from 1801 on) in the meeting hall of the building of the then office of the steelworks, and afterwards, (between 1804 and 1844) in the prayer hall, which had been prepared in the newly built school. In 1825, the cemetery was established. It was initially shared by both Protestants and Catholics.
