St. Franz Xaver (Trudering)
Sankt Franz Xaver is a Catholic church in the parish in the Trudering district in the southeast of Munich . The patron saint is St. Francis Xavier .
Building the church
In 1936 the foundation stone was laid for the Church of St. Franz Xaver. After a final decision in 1965, a new church was built on the old square. After the assembly of the hall church and the demolition of the old church, construction began in 1966. A year later, in 1967, the new church was inaugurated by Julius Cardinal Döpfner .
The church interior consists of a square hall with a side length of 22 m and a height of 10.68 as well as a 3.50 m high aisle; here are confessionals , font and a side altar housed; the baptismal font is enclosed by a bronze dome with rock crystals, the side altar, like the main altar, is made of natural stone.
The ceiling construction rests on the four corner pillars, the walls are made of clinker masonry, which for acoustic reasons was built with open joints on the inside. Altars, baptismal fonts, holy water fonts and floors are made of shell limestone . The area is 602 m 2 , there are around 372 seats and 500 standing places.
Pastor in St. Franz Xavier
The priestly leadership in St. Franz Xaver was also characterized by the fact that this church was designed as a branch church of St. Augustine, so that at times a pastor looked after both parishes:
- 1959 The curate Fuchs begins to found the parish
- 1990 The Fuchs Geistliche Rat retires, Pastor Bickel becomes a parish administrator
- 1991 Pastor Schindelbeck is introduced by Regional Bishop E. Siebler
- 2008 Pierre Damien Ndombe Makanga becomes priestly director
- 2010 Pastor Pazhoora takes over on a temporary basis
- 2011 Merger with St. Augustinus to form the Parish Association Trudering , Pastor Johannes von Bonhorst takes over the management
- Pastor Czeslaw Lukasz heads the parish association from October 2013 to summer 2019. Pastor Franz Xaver Leibiger works as a full-time pastoral worker.
organ
The old organ was replaced in 2002; the organ builder J. Führer designed the organ as a purely mechanical instrument in 2001/2002 as Opus 22. On November 17, 2002 the organ was inaugurated by Cathedral Capitular Lorenz Kastenhofer and handed over to its intended use. The organ's wind chests , wind tunnels and casing were made entirely of oak and refined with oil and wax. With its square floor plan and inclined canopy, the instrument repeats the architectural design of the main church.
