history

In the neo-Gothic style of red brick built St. Paul's Church on the harbor road in Lehe was born on March 19, 1905 consecrated .

The sacred building was almost completely destroyed in the air raids on Wesermünde during the Second World War in 1944. On March 8, 1953, the Hanoverian regional bishop Hanns Lilje opened the rebuilt Pauluskirche.

The altar windows were made by the glass painter Heinz Lilienthal from Bremen. The three middle windows show representations of Easter . On the two outer windows are depictions of Jesus sleeping in the storm and Paul's experience of Damascus . The crucifix is made of hand-driven brass by the artist Stuhlmüller from Hamburg.

A church café has been set up in the Pauluskirche since 2003. As a special feature, there are guided tours to a viewing platform on the church tower, which can be reached via 196 steps.
