St. Peter und Paul, Gothic Revival church in Sodingen district, Herne, Germany.

The church building features a prominent bell tower containing five cast steel bells, including one weighing 3359 kilograms, alongside stained glass windows.

The foundation stone was laid in 1902, and auxiliary bishop Augustinus Gockel from Paderborn consecrated the completed structure on July 5, 1906.

The interior houses religious artworks from different periods, including two statues of Saints Peter and Paul created around 1730 and a high altar from 1912.

Located at Kirchstraße 70 in Herne, the church maintains a cemetery for local parishioners and connects to St. Josefs-Hospital through community services.

The church contains what remains as the oldest preserved organ in Herne, initially built in 1810 and reconstructed during the 1980s.
