Sustainable CO2 Sink

Interior of the church

Already during the planning phase, the small complex proved to be innovative, particularly regarding the way it was built and the integrated, balanced optimisation of all aspects. Deliberate publication of the energy concept and its overall economic feasibility via the media, guided tours for visitors and the distinctive architecture take advantage of the position offered by a church building to disseminate the idea of sustainable building. And the message is heard: church attendance on Sundays was increased by a factor of five.
