Frauenfriedenskirche


Frankfurt am Main, Germany (DE)
The Frauenfriedenskirche (German for Women's Peace Church) is a Roman Catholic church in Bockenheim, Frankfurt am Main. It was built by Hans Herkommer from 1927 to 1929, on a rise then known as Ginnheimer Höhe. The church is an unusual example of interwar modernist church architecture, combining elements of expressionism with the "New Objectivity" of Bauhaus architecture, and using monumental mosaics for external and internal decoration.
