St. Andreas

St. Andreas church features a detached 37-meter tower and a main building constructed with a steel skeleton frame and glass facades.

The original church from 1890 underwent reconstruction between 1948 and 1951 following World War II damage, with additional rebuilding after a 1994 fire.

The interior contains a wooden cube as worship center and Stations of the Cross represented through black and white photographs.

The church entrance includes two smaller doors for regular access, while large blue glass gates remain reserved for religious celebrations.

The main gates incorporate two layers of blue glass that reveal a cross pattern when light passes through, complemented by white nails forming biblical narratives.
