"The grandeur of German churches is due in part to the tax that the congregation pays for their upkeep. One impressive example is the Herz-Jesu-Kirche, which reopened in 2000 after a fire destroyed the original in 1994. The design by architecture firm Allmann Sattler Wappner features glass-and-maple slats that rise above the modernist pews. Artist Alexander Beleschenko devised a symbolic alphabet that denotes passages from the “St John Passion”, which adorn the glass panels on the 14-metre-high doors."

A beautiful hidden Gem wiz glass exterior like a blue cube and a tall steel Column with a cross at the top. the interior is simple but very well designed by wood panels and steel connectors. hidden between Rotkreuzplatz and Gern. It is very recommended for the modern architecture lovers.

Pretty unorthodox structure, unlike old buildings, one has to really find a cross inside, as it is not that big. The building does has its modern aesthetics but one wont expect such a church usually. I liked it it's newness and structure.

This church is located next to my home, thus I pass this place everyday. From the outside it has a modern unorthodox design. Never been inside tho.
