St. Josef-Kirche, Modern Catholic church in Cloppenburg, Germany
The St. Josef-Kirche features a distinctive design of four interconnected hexagons, allowing worshippers to gather around the central altar from three sides.
The current structure, built between 1966 and 1968, replaced a Neo-Gothic hall church that stood at Osterstrasse from 1889 to 1973.
The church interior displays works by artist Heinrich-Gerhard Bücker, including a gilded Christ figure on a circular glass panel in the choir area.
Youth services occur regularly on Sundays at 18:00, typically on the last Sunday of each month outside school holiday periods.
The concrete honeycomb walls contain gray-toned glass panels that create compelling light and shadow patterns throughout the interior space.
