history

In 1948 Archbishop Michael Cardinal von Faulhaber decided to bring the Augustinian hermits to the archbishopric for the pilgrimage site of Maria Eich and pastoral care in Munich. In 1953, the Archbishop's Ordinariate acquired a plot of land on Schwabing Hörwarthstrasse for the new church and a monastery. The new parish was separated from the parishes of St. Ursula and St. Georg ( Milbertshofen ). The architect was Josef Wiedemann . Construction began in 1956 and a year later the church was consecrated by Cardinal Joseph Wendel . In the 1960s, further construction phases were realized, such as B. a parish hall and a kindergarten. In 2000 the church was added to the Bavarian list of monuments. The Augustinians looked after the parish until 1994, when they gave up the monastery, the Archbishop's Ordinariate acquired the complex and the diocese took over pastoral care. From 1999 to 2013 by diocesan priests belonging to the Emmanuel Community . In December 2014, the parish foundation service was celebrated in the parish church of St. Sebastian .

Bells

In the free-standing tower, which is more of a bell carrier, four bronze bells hang in a steel bell cage. In 1960, the Otto bell foundry in Bremen-Hemelingen cast these four bells with the striking tones: d ′ - f ′ - g ′ - a ′. The bells have the following diameters: 1372 mm, 1153 mm, 1027 mm, 915 mm, and weigh: 1720 kg, 980 kg, 710 kg, 510 kg. Their disposition is demonstrably coordinated with the bells of the Church of the Redeemer , which is not far away .
