Have you ever seen a church shaped like a hexagon? Here at the Kreuzkirche in Nuremberg, you’re standing before a truly unique structure. The Kreuzkirche, designed by Olaf Andreas Gulbransson, wasn’t completed until 1963, a year after his death. This striking, six-sided sanctuary is a testament to Gulbransson’s vision. He envisioned a modern space that broke from traditional church architecture. This sanctuary’s roof is supported by a ring anchor made of reinforced concrete, a testament to 20th-century engineering. Sadly, the Kreuzkirche has been closed since 2004 due to the risk of collapse. Services now take place in the adjacent community center. However, the spirit of this community continues. Even the 1964 Steinmeyer organ found a new home, donated to St. Paul’s Church in Odessa. The Kreuzkirche stands as a symbol of resilience and adaptation, a hexagonal haven in the heart of Schweinau.
