Ludwigskirche, Modern concrete church in Freiburg im Breisgau, Germany.
Ludwigskirche is a church from the 1950s featuring a striking concrete structure with slender columns that open up the interior space. The building combines brick walls with extensive glass elements and houses a 41-register organ.
The original church was built in 1839 but was destroyed in 1944 during World War II. The current building was constructed between 1952 and 1954.
The church incorporates preserved elements from both the original structure and the former Tennenbach monastery, including Romanesque round-arch friezes and stone capitals.
The church stands on Starkenstraße near the Old Cemetery and is easy to reach on foot. Visitors can hear the organ during services or at special concerts.
The altar window was designed by artist Harry MacLean with full glazing that creates a striking contrast against the heavy concrete ceiling. This glass area floods the interior with light and shapes the experience when entering the church.
