St. Thomas More (Münster)

St. Thomas More, Munster

The St. Thomas More Church is a Catholic church in Münster .

The church is located in the middle of a building complex which, with its various functional rooms, serves as the parish center. The ensemble was planned and built - immediately after the end of the Second Vatican Council - and executed in 1971-74 by the team of architects Max von Hausen and Ortwin Rave (Münster). In front of the actual church space is a large, elongated foyer to which the various community rooms connect.

The church interior itself has a wedge-shaped floor plan, which is extended to the north by a square, slightly lower room. To the south, two separable community rooms border the church.
