St. Albertus Magnus

The Catholic parish church of St. Albertus Magnus is located at Schwabenstrasse 2 in the barracks district of Regensburg .

history

The area of ​​today's parish belonged to the parish of St. Anton until 1963 . The growing part of the city and the pastoral care of the soldiers in the four adjacent barracks made it necessary to establish a new parish foundation. In 1962/63 the parish church of St. Albertus Magnus with 850 seats was built according to plans by Karl Schmid jun. built. On December 22nd, 1963 the church was consecrated by Bishop Rudolf Graber .

On January 1, 2018, the church was damaged by a smoldering fire in the roof. In order to enable fire fighting from the interior, a 16 t fire brigade turntable ladder DLK 23-12 was driven through the main entrance into the interior of the church.

building

Next to the church with a bell tower (height: 45 m + 5 m bronze cross) there is a rectory, rectory and kindergarten.

Furnishing

Inside, the "Cosmic Christ" by the Regensburg artist Walter Zacharias above the altar and the larger than life statue of the church patron by Max Reiger, a Martini student, are remarkable. Gebhard Schmidl from Munich created the glass windows. In the altar there are relics of St. Aeterius , St. Charus and St. Innocentia .

Bells

The two small bells with cranked yokes

In the slender, free-standing bell tower hangs a four-part bronze bell, which sounds in the Parsifal motif and was cast in 1963 by the Hofweber bell foundry in Regensburg. Due to the limited space in the bell room, all bells hang on strongly cranked yokes.
