Pankratiuskapelle, Protestant chapel in Giessen, Germany
The Pankratius Chapel stands as a wooden frame structure with a five-eighth closure, incorporating stones from previous religious buildings in its construction.
After the 1944 bombing destroyed the previous church, this chapel was constructed in 1949 as part of the emergency church program for communities affected by war.
The chapel maintains regular Sunday services at 10 AM, serving as the central gathering point for the Protestant community of northwestern Giessen.
Located at Georg-Schlosser-Strasse 7, the chapel contains 500 seats and features a Joseph Raschke organ with 16 registers and 1,100 pipes.
The structure combines wood framework with minimal masonry, using salvaged materials from the old town church destroyed during World War II.
