The Deutscher Evangelischer Kirchentag (German for German Protestant Church Day) is a movement of lay members of the Evangelical Church in Germany. It sees itself as a free movement of people brought together by their Christian faith and engagement for the future of church and society.

Its main mission is the holding of a convention of 5 days every 2 years in a different city of Germany. These bring together between 100.000 and 200.000 visitors, who participate for the whole period of time. It was founded in 1949 and has achieved a high importance, as can be seen by many attending politicians, including chancellor and president. The media impact, while the Kirchentag is held is also considerable.
