    An interesting attempt from the early 1960s to introduce modern architecture into church building.

    Translated by Google •

      A Catholic and a Protestant church were already taken into account when planning the municipal Per-Albin-Hansson settlement. The Catholic parish church of St. Francis de Sales was built in the center of the settlement in 1962-63 according to plans by the architect Georg Lippert. It is a concrete building on a rectangular floor plan, which is largely unadorned on the outside. Only the apse has facing bricks. The free-standing bell tower on a square ground plan is 38 m high. Up to a height of 25 m, the tower is made of concrete slabs, above which rise individual reinforced concrete ribs, which combine to form a basket. At the front of the entrance there is a large concrete relief by Josef Troyer, which shows the risen Christ in a blessing position.
