St Barbara, Catholic church in Littenweiler district, Freiburg im Breisgau, Germany.

The building consists of a rectangular nave with a recessed choir, while its entrance facade features two metal sculpted portals and a rose window.

The original church from 1449 stood on Sonnenberg mountain until 1862, when its stones were transported by ox carts to construct a new building.

The church interior displays seven tall windows by artist Edzard Seeger and mosaics depicting Christian symbols and Mary's coronation by Christ.

The parish of St Barbara serves approximately 3,500 members and operates as part of the Catholic Community Freiburg East since January 2015.

The church tower reaches 32 meters in height and contains five bronze bells, with three dating from 1953 and two additional ones cast in 1959.
