St. Augustinus is the main Catholic church in Nordhorn, built between 1911 and 1913. The dome, supported by eight brick columns, is 35 meters high and has a diameter of 22 meters.
On August 31, 1913, on the occasion of the inauguration of St. Augustine's Church, the Gelautert was consecrated with five bronze bells.
There are currently 4 bells in the 45 m high tower.

A really interesting church building. However, access is currently locked.

The Catholic church in the city center is currently undergoing extensive renovations, so tours are not possible. It is now (2025) open to the public again and definitely worth a look.
