The Aue Chapel (also Hannah or Hanna Chapel ) in Hanover is a former chapel of the Bethesda complex of the Henrietten Foundation in the Hanover district of Kirchrode . Location of the listed building: on Tiergartenstraße between the Emmaus and Bethel houses .

History and description

The building was erected around 1900 from lawn iron stone, presumably initially as a corpse chapel for the cemetery laid out on the Bethesda property . According to the art historian Doris Böker , the rectangular choir of the small hall building , in the eastern wall of which a pointed arch window was built, was separated by buttresses . A transverse gable with a pointed bezel decorates the eaves side .

After the room was also used for occupational therapy, the building, also known as the “Aue” building, has recently been used as a stylish hall for meetings and discussions.
