Herz-Jesu-Kirche

Located in Tempelhof, this Romanesque Revival church features red brick decorations, including pilaster strips and friezes on its single-nave structure with a square tower.

The church, inaugurated in 1898, emerged from the growing Catholic community in Tempelhof, with initial services held in 1890 under Wilhelm Rudolphi's leadership.

The church holds three cast steel bells from 1897 with historical inscriptions, contributing to the neighborhood's religious soundscape through regular bell ringing.

The building spans 20 meters in length and 13 meters in width, with a tower reaching 43 meters, providing space for religious services and community gatherings.

After surviving World War II with minimal damage, the church received new windows in 1946, which required additional repairs following the demolition of a nearby bunker.
