Maria Schutz, Catholic church in Kaiserslautern, Germany.
The three-nave basilica features a double-tower facade constructed with sandstone foundations and brick walls, displaying Gothic architectural elements throughout its structure.
Built between 1928 and 1929, the church emerged from Bishop Michael Faulhaber's promise to construct a religious building if the Palatinate region survived World War I.
The church portal presents sculptures by Simon Höpfel depicting Saint Michael the Archangel, Saint Mary, and Saint Louis as religious representations.
The church contains ten chapels with 1,320 urn chambers in its columbarium, which was added in December 2021 through renovation work.
The original pointed spires of the towers were damaged during World War II and replaced with flat pyramid roofs in the post-war reconstruction.
