St. Franziskus

St. Franziskus church features a modern architectural design with large stained glass windows created by Georg Meistermann, depicting biblical themes and Christian virtues.

The church, constructed between 1982 and 1984 by architects Hans Schilling and Peter Kulka, represents the last new church building in Mainz city deaneries.

The interior displays a reproduction of the Werden Bronze Crucifix from 1060 and contains symbols of evangelists crafted by artist Leonhard Eder.

The church maintains regular religious services and houses a 23-register organ built by Hubert Fasen, installed in 2016 through community support.

Eight registers from the original 1984 Hofbauer organ were integrated into the new instrument, preserving elements of the church's musical heritage.
