Frauenfriedenskirche, Catholic church in Bockenheim, Germany

The Frauenfriedenskirche features a 25-meter high portal with three round arches and includes a memorial yard measuring 18 by 30 meters.

The Catholic German Women's Organization initiated the church construction in 1916, but hyperinflation delayed the project until its completion in 1929.

The church displays names of German soldiers from both World Wars, serving as a memorial space for reflection and remembrance.

Located on Ginnheimer Höhe, the church complex incorporates the main building, rectory, and parish halls in an integrated architectural layout.

The structure combines expressionist elements with New Objectivity style, featuring monumental mosaics both on exterior and interior surfaces.
