Guided Story

Take a look around this simple yet intriguing space. The Holy Spirit Church, consecrated in June 1967, is a remarkable example of modern church architecture. Its pentagonal layout naturally draws your eyes to the altar, placed along the longest side of the room. As you admire the colorful stained glass windows, notice the biblical scenes crafted by the German glass artist Ferdinand Selgrad. Behind you rises the 26-meter tall campanile, made of reinforced concrete, serving as a striking landmark. And there, behind the altar, is the organ of the Evangelical Holy Spirit Church, an integral part of this spiritual place.
