Maria-Hilf-Church (Berlin)
The Catholic Church Maria Hilf is at Cimbernstrasse 2 in Berlin-Altglienicke . The simple functional building was built in 1937 according to a design by Carl Kühn and, as a place for regular church services, today belongs to the parish of Christ King , Adlershof, in the Treptow-Köpenick dean's office of the Archdiocese of Berlin .
history
An independent Catholic life began again in Altglienicke after the Reformation , when a church building association was founded in 1927 at the suggestion of the responsible pastor Alfred Brinkmann . The association held its events in the Deutsches Haus, a restaurant on Grünauer Strasse , and began building a small church with around 120 seats. The church was consecrated by cathedral priest Bernhard Lichtenberg on September 12, 1937, and the first service was celebrated in December of the same year. On June 30, 2004 the parishes of Maria Hilf and St. Laurentius in Bohnsdorf merged with the parish of Christ King.
