Alt-Katholische Friedenskirche

The First Vatican Council (1869/70) triggered a new movement for Catholic Christians. This new movement with a lively tradition brought to life reflections on the origins of Christianity (thus "old Catholic"). This led to the setting-up of this "Catholic Reform Church". After the Wiesbaden members of the parish had been guests in various churches, they began to build their own parish church in May 1899. The Peace Church of Wiesbaden was created in Early Gothic style according to a design by the architect Max Schröder from Offenbach, with the assistance of city planner Genzmer and architect Nink. Local craftsmen and artists were commissioned for the interior decorations and furnishings. On 11 November 1900 the new church was consecrated by Bishop Theodor Weber and has served as the spiritual home to the Old Catholic parish ever since. A comprehensive renovation of the interior in the 1980s has turned the "Peace Church" into a jewel and work of art in Wiesbaden's city centre.
