Leipzig, DE
The Paulinum has a double function, that of a church, "St. Paul's University Church", and that of an assembly hall. The building was constructed between 2007 and 2017 according to the plans of Dutch architect Erick van Egeraat on the site where the University Church of St. Paul was destroyed by the explosion on 30 May 1968. Completion of the building was originally planned for the university's anniversary year in 2009 but was only partially completed by that date.

Kiel, DE
The Petrus Church was built by order of the Grand Admiral Alfred von Tirpitz in the years 1905-1907 as a garrison church. The architects of the church were Karl Moser and Robert Curjel. Shortly after Kiel was elevated to the status of an imperial war port in 1871, the first garrison church, the Paulus Church, was built in 1878-1882. The constant growth of the imperial navy made it necessary to build another church for the members of the navy. Initially planned as a simultaneous church in order to reduce costs, it was finally decided to build the Petrus-Kirche as a Protestant church, and in 1907 the Catholic Church of St. Heinrich was built not far from this church in Feldstraße.
Polch, DE
Polch's synagogue was built in 1876-77, probably according to the plans of Hermann Nebel. During the pogrom of November 1938, the synagogue was burnt down by men of the SA of Mayen. Although the fire was quickly extinguished, the women's gallery in particular was destroyed. On January 17, 1940, the Jewish community had to sell the synagogue, which used the building as a warehouse.
