St. Katharina, Gothic Revival parish church in Wallerfangen, Germany
The St. Katharina church features a tall central tower, multiple arched windows, and a spacious interior with a mosaic floor and vaulted ceilings reaching 15 meters.
After the medieval Augustinian monastery church burned down in 1635 during the Thirty Years' War, the current structure was constructed in the early 1860s.
The church celebrates two patron saints, Catherine of Alexandria and Barbara of Nicomedia, whose stories influence the architectural and interior design elements.
The church interior spans 44 meters in length and 18 meters in width, with bell chimes in C sharp, E, F sharp, and G sharp installed in 1954.
The church windows, replaced in 1964 after war damage, were created by Benedictine artist Robert 'Bonifatius' Köck with distinctive designs.
