Mariä Heimsuchung, Wiesbaden, Catholic church in Kohlheck district, Wiesbaden, Germany

The 41-meter-tall concrete structure stands as a visible landmark in the Dotzheim suburb, featuring a design resembling the letter M in its architecture.

After World War II, Bishop Wilhelm Kempf established the parish in 1960 to accommodate the growing Catholic population from eastern regions settling in Wiesbaden.

Two large abstract triptychs by Otto Ritschl, completed in 1973 and 1976, adorn the interior walls with bright colors intended for meditation purposes.

The church forms part of St. Peter und Paul parish since 2013, offering regular services and maintaining an active religious community in western Wiesbaden.

The building's floor plan incorporates the Star of David pattern, while natural light enters from the west side to illuminate the eastern altar wall.
