Corvinuskirche, Modern church building in Herrenhausen-Stöcken, Germany

The Corvinuskirche features a pentagonal structure with a 35-meter bell tower, incorporating exposed concrete, brickwork, and dark slate roofing materials.

Architect Roderich Schröder designed the Lutheran church between 1960 and 1962, creating a structure that reflected post-war religious architecture in Germany.

The church interior accommodated 350 people with strategically arranged pews, centered around a sandstone altar that emphasized community congregation.

Following a community merger in 2006, the building entered a period of declining use, leading to its abandonment and subsequent monument protection status.

The roof geometry rotates 36 degrees from the floor plan, creating an unconventional relationship between the building's eaves and walls.
