Kirche Christi Verklärung, Catholic church building in Heimersdorf, Germany.

The church features white marble iconostasis and light sandstone exterior walls, combining both architectural elements in a central building design.

The church, designed by architect Josef Lehmbrock, opened its doors in 1966 as a modern addition to religious structures in Cologne.

The building incorporates architectural elements influenced by Northern Russian style and follows the form of a Greek cross in its layout.

Located in the Heimersdorf district of Cologne, the church contains a crypt beneath the altar area for additional ceremonial space.

The interior marble iconostasis, crafted by Luigi Broggi following Grigorij Gagarin's design, merges Italian craftsmanship with Russian Orthodox traditions.
