St. Bernward, Roman Catholic church in Alt-Wolfsburg, Germany

The church features exterior walls covered with Obernkirchen sandstone and houses four steel bells named Johannes, Anna, Josef, and Gabriel.

The church was consecrated in 1965 after Volkswagen AG donated the land and managed the construction through their building department.

Heinrich Nordhoff, the Volkswagen director, influenced the church design after visiting Hildesheim Cathedral, choosing a Romanesque architectural style.

The church complex includes a kindergarten facility, established in 1965, which currently provides care for 120 children aged zero to six years.

A rose bush planted on the western side of the church serves as a tribute to the thousand-year-old rose bush in Hildesheim.
