In 2014 the community center was energetically renovated . The seat of the Dietrich Bonhoeffer Foundation is the parish of the same name.

description

The one to two-storey building complex in the style of post-war modernism was attached to an earlier construction phase. The diverse, cubic community center includes a centrally located, two-storey multi-purpose room that can be used for church services and other events. The interior can be expanded to the left and right if necessary.

Another community hall is available to community circles and other groups. In the basement there are youth centers . Community offices and a chapel complete the construction.

Bells

The square, blunt bell tower is included in the building complex. A bronze bell made of three bells , which was cast by Petit & Gebr. Edelbrock in 1970 , hangs in his belfry .
