Holy Guardian Angel (Frillendorf)

from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Parish Church of the Holy Guardian Angel

The Catholic parish church Hl. Guardian Angel is a listed church building in Frillendorf , a district of Essen .

History and architecture

The building in the style of brick expressionism stands on a slight hill. It was built in 1923/24 according to plans by the architect Edmund Körner . The combination of central and directional building is characteristic of the modern Catholic interior. The lighting concept evokes a mystical room atmosphere. The elliptical floor plan with the six attached, semicircular chapels is based on the church of St. Gereon in Cologne. This is followed by the two-storey entrance building with vestibule and organ loft - the organ loft is no longer used today - and the hexagonal choir raised by the tower . There is now a smaller organ in the choir room. The domed room is brightly painted, the chapels and the choir are in bold colors taken .

Furnishing

The wreath of guardian angel figures made of plaster was created by Edmund Körner in 1923/24. The majolica reliefs of the Stations of the Cross were purchased in 1937. The organ was built in 2001 by Orgelbau Simon from Borgentreich .

Bells

Music director Jakob Schaeben (1905–1980) worked out a tonal assessment of the peal. The comparison of the sound analyzes makes it clear that a flawless attunement not only of the bells with each other, but also of the individual sounds is achieved. The established reverberation values ​​show that the best metal rich in tin was cast at a good temperature. The high vibration energy and very good harmony of the bells in conjunction with the beautiful acoustics of the bell room result in a sound effect of extraordinary animation, fullness and clarity. This bell should be described as exemplary.
