St. Paulus (Beuel)
The Catholic Church of St. Paul in the Bonn district of Beuel-Ost was built between 1956 and 1958. It stands including a Crossroads from 1677 as a monument under monument protection .
history
The parish church consecrated to St. Paul on Siegburger Strasse was built according to the plans of the Cologne architect Dominikus Böhm . The Church of St. Paul is the last work of this important architect. In 1955 he drafted the plans and the construction was carried out under the direction of his son Gottfried Böhm .
The nave with a gable roof is set back from the busy street. Facing away from this, the rectory is attached to the nave at an angle. The separate church tower is in alignment with the rectory. The rectory and vestibule of the church are connected to the nave by pent roofs . The Bonn architect Reinhard Stapper later added the parish center to the tower.
architecture
St. Paulus appears as a block-like, closed building that only a few individual forms loosen up: the rectangular windows under the eaves , the windows in the vestibule and in the aisle and the rose window on the south side. The rose window is a stylistic element of Gothic architecture.
The church hall is spanned by a slightly vaulted coffered ceiling. At the side, the central nave opens in full length to the lower aisle. Characteristic is the stage-like increased chorus , the one-sided exposure of the chancel by a high window and large undifferentiated wall surfaces.
Furnishing
The baptismal font is in front of the pulpit in the nave and there is a Marian altar in the aisle. The glass windows in the vestibule and in the aisle represent saints according to the architect's designs. In 1998, the terracotta sculpture of the crucified Christ created by Walter Prinz from Cologne was placed on the altar wall.
Bells
There are three bells hanging in the tower .
