St. Lucia, Neo-Gothic church in Broichweiden, Würselen, Germany
The three-nave church building features a substantial tower, ribbed vaults, and detailed architectural elements inspired by the Church of St. Peter in Cologne-Ehrenfeld.
Construction of St. Lucia began in 1900 under architect Theodor Ross, replacing a 15th-century chapel that had become insufficient for the growing congregation.
The church interior contains artworks by Ludwig Schaffrath, including stained glass windows and a blue ceiling painting representing the connection between God and humanity.
St. Lucia serves 5,000 Catholic Christians as part of St. Sebastian parish, offering regular services and maintaining an organ with 40 stops across three manuals.
The church tower remained incomplete after World War II reconstruction, making it a distinctive architectural element in the Würselen skyline.
