Ost-West Friedenskirche, Chapel in Oberwiesenfeld district, Munich, Germany.
The Ost-West Friedenskirche stands in Munich's Olympic Park, constructed with repurposed materials including construction waste from World War II rubble.
Russian architect Timofey Prokhorov initiated the chapel's construction in 1952 after receiving spiritual visions that guided him from Russia to Munich.
The chapel represents a bridge between Eastern and Western Christian traditions, as it functions independently from both Catholic and Orthodox denominations.
The chapel stood at Spiridon-Louis Ring 100 in Munich's Olympic Park until June 2023, when an electrical malfunction caused its destruction by fire.
The chapel's ceiling featured decorative elements made from chocolate paper wrappers, demonstrating the creative reuse of everyday materials in religious architecture.
