St. Bonifatius, Catholic church in Weststadt, Heidelberg, Germany.
The three-nave basilica features alternating red sandstone blocks and light limestone masonry, with double towers and a transept configuration.
Completed in 1903 by architect Ludwig Maier, St. Bonifatius emerged when Heidelberg's Weststadt district required additional Catholic worship spaces beyond the Jesuit Church.
The church ceiling displays painted motifs influenced by St. Michael's Church in Hildesheim, combining German religious art with Romanesque Revival architecture.
The building contains five bells in two towers, with four cast steel bells from 1922 and one bronze bell from 1952 for daily Angelus calls.
The organ, installed in 1964 and expanded in 1991, contains 3526 pipes across 52 stops, creating musical variations for religious ceremonies.
