The church is built from concrete and yellow brick. Circulation, floorlayout and elevations are affected by its spiral form. The dynamically uprising expression is underlined by the tower's likewise ascending joints which are, at the same time, the reason for the building's nickname "loo roll". The interior is dominated by the sloping roof and the fan-shaped wooden beams. Special thanks to Jo Landwehr.

Heritage protected since 2013. Was in use as church until 2014. After plans for demolition were averted, the building is now being converted into a community center (last updated on September 26, 2024).
