history
The church was built in 1958 according to the plans of the diocesan building council Alfons Boklage from Münster as the southern end of the Johanneum schoolyard. It is intended to give the students the opportunity to contemplate and pray. Originally, a 2 m high wooden cross was to be seen in the choir room, which today was attached to the gallery of the organ. The church was completely redesigned by Ulrich Hahn at the end of 1994. The incidence of light creates a meditative mood.
