Elisabeth-Kirche, Catholic church in Southern City Center, Halle, Germany
The St. Franziskus und St. Elisabeth church features a three-nave cruciform pillar basilica with a transept and a tower at the northeast corner.
Built between 1894 and 1896 by architect Arnold Güldenpfennig, the church marks the return of Catholics to Halle after their departure in 1564.
The church interior contains a carved wing altar, a Marian altar in the east choir, and stained glass windows reconstructed by Quedlinburg glassworks.
The building offers 315 square meters of space with seating for 350 people and standing room for 400, making it suitable for large gatherings.
The organ, initially built by August Ferdinand Wäldner in 1860, underwent multiple renovations to reach its current configuration of 41 registers across three manuals.
