St. Josef, Parish church in Bornheim district, Frankfurt, Germany.

St. Josef is a parish church in Bornheim made of concrete, displaying early twentieth-century architectural style through its clean lines and straightforward design. The building features thick concrete walls, large window openings, and a bell tower that rises above the surrounding neighborhood.

The church was built when Bornheim was growing rapidly and more Catholic families moved to the area. The project shows how Frankfurt was changing in the early twentieth century as the city needed new buildings for its expanding population.

The church has long served as a center for the Catholic community in Bornheim and continues to shape the neighborhood's character today. Visitors can still see traces of this local connection in the building's design and purpose.

The church is easily located in the Bornheim neighborhood and is accessible by public transport. Visitors can walk around the building to view the exterior from all angles, and should check ahead to see if the interior is open at their planned time.

The building was designed by three architects working together: Max Meckel, Hans Rummel, and Christoph Rummel combined their different ideas. This collaboration made the church a special example of teamwork in modern architecture.
