Friedenskirche, Brutalist church in Baumberg, Germany

The Friedenskirche features exposed concrete walls with geometric patterns created through detailed wooden formwork, representing a strong example of brutalist architecture.

The church construction started in 1968 following a design competition won by architect Walter Maria Foerderer, addressing the needs of 3,000 Protestant parish members.

The building includes a 200-person hall, community rooms, and an amphitheater that provide spaces for religious services and local community gatherings.

Located at Schellingstraße 13 in Monheim am Rhein, the church complex contains staff apartments and a kindergarten within its grounds.

The church interior incorporates fourteen different electric light settings and a large projection screen for enhanced worship experiences.
