{{As of|2022}}, the largest Christian denominations were Protestantism (23,7%) and [[Catholicism]] (22,6% of the population).<ref>{{cite web |title=Dortmund in Zahlen |url=https://statistikportal.dortmund.de/dortmundinzahlen/#Bev%C3%B6lkerung |website=Statistikportal Dortmund |publisher=Stadt Dortmund}}</ref> Furthermore, in Dortmund the [[Greek Orthodox Church]], the [[Serbian Orthodox Church]], and the [[Macedonian Orthodox Church]] are represented. The Church of the Holy Apostles (gre. I.N. Αγίων Αποστόλων Ντόρτμουντ – I.N. Agíon Apostólon Dortmund) was the first Greek church in Germany to be founded due to the influx of "guest workers". Also Dortmund is home of the [[New Apostolic Church]] in [[North Rhine-Westphalia]], with more than 84,944 community members.
The Jewish community has a history dating back to Medieval times and has always ranked among the largest in [[Westphalia]]. Dortmund is home to the National Association of Jewish Communities of Westfalen-Lippe. The synagogues operate there in City center, Hörde, and Dorstfeld. Due to the growing immigration of people from Muslim countries beginning in the 1960s, Dortmund has a large Muslim community with more than 30 mosques.
In June 2019 Dortmund hosted the 37th Evangelischer Kirchentag – [[German Evangelical Church Assembly]].<ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.kirchentag.org.uk |title=Kirchentag 2019 |website=Stadtportal Dortmund}}</ref>
