Liebfrauenkirche, Modernist church in Oberursel, Germany
The Liebfrauenkirche is a church building in Oberursel constructed from concrete and brick with expansive windows that flood the interior with natural light. The open layout inside creates a sense of space while the industrial materials define its contemporary character.
The building was constructed between 1963 and 1967 under the direction of architects Rudolf and Maria Schwarz. This construction marked a turning point in postwar ecclesiastical design.
The church maintains an active schedule of religious ceremonies and community gatherings, serving as a central point for local spiritual activities.
The church is easily accessible from Oberursel town center and offers ample space for visitors and events. As an active place of worship, visitors should check for religious service times before planning their visit.
The building employs industrial materials in an unconventional way for a sacred space, setting it apart from traditional church architecture. This choice of modern construction was still uncommon in the 1960s when rethinking places of worship.
