St. Josef (Cologne-Porz)

South facade with tower

St. Josef is a Catholic parish church in Cologne-Porz .

The hall, which was designed in the late Gothic style and built in 1910/11, is based on plans by the architect Eduard Endler . In 1928 a side tower was added to the south-west with expressionist shapes, which also has elements of Gothic. Except for the choir windows that were destroyed in the Second World War , all the original stained glass have been preserved. From 1952 to 1959 the choir was re-glazed. In 1957/58 the church was extended to the west by Karl Band .

St. Josef has been listed as an architectural monument in Cologne-Porz since 1983 .
