Pauluskirche

Pauluskirche, Protestant church in Unterstrass district, Zürich, Switzerland.

Pauluskirche is a church building located in the Unterstrass district and features a 34-meter-high tower clad in Estavayer shell limestone. The structure has a large entrance facade and provides more than one thousand seats across three levels for services and events.

Construction began in June 1932 following a public competition that selected architect Martin Risch's design. The building was inaugurated on January 14, 1934, marking the completion of this new religious center.

The four statues between the church doors depict Zwingli, Luther, Calvin and Bullinger; Otto Kappeler carved them. Inside, Augusto Giacometti's brightly coloured glass window shows the theological virtues Faith, Love and Hope, set before the pulpit wall. The name Pauluskirche refers to the apostle Paul.

Access to the church is via a broad flight of steps leading up to the doors, between which stand statues of Zwingli, Luther, Calvin and Bullinger. The interior is a hall with two galleries; the choir area was enlarged in 2007 so it can be seated differently depending on the event. The building is a listed municipal monument.

The seven bronze bells weigh 17,496 kg in total and hang in an open bell cage, which gives the peal a somewhat shrill timbre. Bells 3 and 2 strike the quarter hours, while the bourdon sounds the full hour. Bells 7 (G) and 5 (E-flat) recently received new clappers; the others keep their old pear-shaped ones.
