Friedenskirche, Monheim-Baumberg

Construction of the Friedenskirche in Monheim-Baumberg began in 1968 and was finished in 1974. Worship service already started in 1971. The impressive building complex was planned by the swiss architect and sculptor Walter Maria Förderer. Förderer designed the Friedenskirche as a walk-in sculpture made from concrete: clearly sacred on the outside, pragmatically flexible on the inside.
