St.-Karl-Borromäus-Kirche, Modern Catholic church in Grunewald, Germany
St.-Karl-Borromäus-Kirche features a quadrangular hall structure built with reinforced concrete and topped with a gabled roof and narrow sacristy extension.
The church foundation stone was laid on August 15, 1954, and the building was consecrated on May 19, 1955, designed by architect Alfons Leitl.
The interior design incorporates the altar area into the congregation space, reflecting liturgical movement principles and houses a Russian icon and relief about Karl Borromäus.
The church holds regular Catholic services and maintains an organ from 1898, positioned across two opposite galleries for enhanced musical performances.
The bells in the campanile, cast by Bochumer Verein in 1953, contain inscriptions addressing religious and community themes.
