Hl. Bruder Klaus von der Flüe
Hl. Bruder Klaus von der Flüe is a Catholic church in Stuttgart, designed by Karl Hans Neumann and completed in 1974. Its exposed concrete, curved wall and softly diffused windows create a focused interior for worship.
Renovations in 2003 and 2006 moved the altar into the centre, surrounded it with three U-shaped pew blocks, and reduced the floor’s former three-step slope to one. Along the curved wall, Siegfried Haas’s 1978 Stations of the Cross leads to a freestanding cross representing the Crucifixion, while Karl Ulrich Nuss’s 1989 triptych and Maina Leonhardt’s Pentecost window add further works. The Mühleisen organ from Strasbourg has sounded here since its inauguration in 1980.
A Marian statue meets visitors in view of the entrance, and a statue of Bruder Klaus stands against the foremost exposed concrete wall.
