Herz-Jesu-Kirche, Catholic church in Bocholt, Germany.

The Herz-Jesu-Kirche featured a modernist design with an industrial-style shed roof and asymmetrical tower on its western side.

The church's foundation stone was laid on May 31, 1959, and the building was consecrated on October 30, 1960, with construction costs reaching 600,000 Deutsche Mark.

The interior contained wooden Stations of the Cross, a triumph cross by Heinrich Lückenkötter, and a resonator organ with 36 registers.

The church served as a parish center with adjacent facilities including a parish house, community center, and kindergarten until its closure in September 2019.

Local residents nicknamed the building 'Herz-Jesu-Fabrik' due to its industrial architectural style, which reflected the daily lives of the working congregation.
