Kreuzkirche, Protestant church in Bockum-Hövel, Germany.

The Kreuzkirche features Romanesque architecture with straight lines, simple forms, and functional design elements throughout its exterior and interior spaces.

The church opened in 1912 to accommodate the rising Protestant population from nearby mining communities, including workers from the Radbod coal mine.

The Gustav-Adolf-Haus parish house, built in 1925, hosts regular community gatherings, educational programs, and social activities for local residents.

Regular Protestant services take place in the church, which maintains capacity for over 100 attendees and provides accessible entrances for all visitors.

During World War I, the church surrendered its bells for military purposes, leading to modifications in how services were conducted for the congregation.
