The church stands on the south side of Angers Franz-Broschek-Platz. The simple building under a flat roof has an unadorned, smooth facade, glazed in the lower area with a central rectangular portal. On the east side, the church has narrow rectangular windows in the area of the chancel. On the west side there is a broad open tower, which serves as the entrance area for a lower chapel. The chapel in the south shows a large mosaic representation of Christ in Emmaus by the artist Lydia Roppolt (1967).
The interior of the church with a wide hall has an aisle-like vestibule in the north with a gallery above the entire width. The popular altar is simple. There is a crucifix from the end of the 17th century and a Madonna figure from the 1st half of the 19th century. Lydia Roppolt (1967) created the crossways reliefs.
The organ was built by Walcker-Mayer (1980).
