Saint Lambert Church, Roman Catholic church in Erkelenz, Germany.
Saint Lambert Church in Immerath is a modern church building featuring twin bell towers and colorful stained glass windows. The structure shapes the local skyline with its contemporary design and provides space for worship services and community gatherings.
The building was completed in 2015 to replace the original church that dated to the 12th century and was demolished due to brown coal mining. The new construction allowed a centuries-old religious tradition to continue in a new location.
The church is named after Lambert of Maastricht and serves the community as a place for worship and religious celebrations. Visitors experience an active parish that continues its traditions within a contemporary setting.
The church is located in a newly developed residential area and is easily accessible on foot from the town center. Regular worship services occur weekly, and visitors can view the building during opening hours.
The building stands on a site where an entire village once existed before it was relocated for mining operations. The church demonstrates how a community preserved its identity even as its surroundings were completely rebuilt.
