Building description
The Gothic-style Bethlehem Chapel is stylistically similar to the Paulus Church in the same district, only a few years older, on Meterstrasse. The small chapel appears as a three- bay brick building and is surrounded by stepped buttresses . A roof turret standing in the middle of the gable roof crowns the building.
The church building is accessed via the portal in the west gable , which is accentuated by a slightly protruding eyelash and a round window with tracery above it .
The chapel has a single-storey extension with a flat roof, the outside of which is made of clinker bricks in the same color as the chapel. This component is also used by the parish.
