Guided Story

Standing here, you're facing the church of the former Ulmer Höh' correctional facility, a silent witness to its storied past. This chapel is the sole survivor of the prison complex demolished in the summer of 2017. It once served as a spiritual refuge for inmates and now stands as a piece of history from the Ulmer Höh’. Looking south, you might spot the Zionskirche nearby. The chapel's simple architecture tells many stories, inviting you to imagine a place of prayer and contemplation amidst walls originally built for entirely different purposes.
