St. Petrus, Catholic church at Harztorwall, Wolfenbüttel, Germany.
The Romanesque Revival building features a cross-shaped floor plan, a basilica layout, and a square tower reaching 77 meters above sea level.
After the Lutheran Reformation of 1568, Duke Anton Ulrich permitted private Catholic masses in 1700, leading to the establishment of an emergency chapel in 1707.
The choir windows display representations of Saints Bernward of Hildesheim, Simon Peter, and Godehard of Hildesheim, connecting to Catholic traditions.
The church building, constructed between 1889 and 1891, stands at Harztorwall 2 and maintains regular services for the Catholic community.
The baptismal font allows for full-body immersion baptisms, while the church structure incorporates blind arcades and pilaster strips on exterior walls.
