Very unusual architecture 👍🏻 ... is based on the Syrian architectural style.

Theodor Fischer built the Pauluskirche as one of the first concrete churches in Germany. It takes up individual elements of Art Nouveau and Romanesque. The twin towers build on the village church in Gaggstatt, which he built between 1902 and 1905. The Pauluskirche is characterized by the fact that exposed concrete was used for the vault in the nave in one of the first sacred buildings in Germany. The wide-span vault has no pillars and is held in place by concrete trusses in the form of the so-called fisherman's arch. The two grenade-shaped towers in the east, more than 50 meters high, are supposed to be reminiscent of Syrian domes. In the west of the ship is a cylindrical part of the building with the organ gallery partially in front of it. The heraldic animals on the column bases of the entrance hall, the Staufer lion and the Württemberg deer, are also made of concrete. The back wall of the altar bears a painted crucifix by Adolf Hölzel.

One of the first churches in Germany to be built from concrete! The towers are said to be reminiscent of Syrian granaries. A great sight e.g. from the old cemetery.

The Pauluskirche in Ulm was built as an evangelical garrison church by the architect Theodor Fischer between 1908 and 1910 north of the old cemetery on Frauenstrasse. It is the parish church of the Ulm Paul congregation. Due to the good acoustics, it is considered 'the' concert church in a wide area.

The Catholic garrison church stands at the southern end of the cemetery.
