Guided Story
Take a moment to admire the architecture designed by Hilger Hertel. St. Pankratius is the oldest parish church in this part of Oberhausen, Osterfeld. Quite a landmark, isn't it? While it used to serve as a parish church, it's now part of the St. Clemens Oberhausen parish. The building exudes a serene dignity that you can really feel standing here. If you turn around, you might catch a glimpse of the Osterfeld district town hall, just a short walk to the east.
