The Herz-Jesu-Church was designed by the Viennese architect Ludwig Schöne and was built between 1892 and 1894. The main tower with the pointed roof is 57 meters high. Parts of the medieval and baroque furnishings come from the old Jakobuskirche. The detailed interior is colorful and the roof tiles also have different colors.

“Behold, the Heart of the Redeemer—an understandable sign of his indomitable love and an inexhaustible source of true peace. In him ‘all the fullness of God truly dwells’ (Col 2:9). The peace that Christ brought to earth comes precisely from this fullness and this love. It is the gift of a loving God, who loved humanity in the heart of his only begotten Son. ‘He is our peace’ (cf. Phil 2:14)—cry Saint Paul. Yes, Jesus is peace, he is our reconciliation. (…) As we venerate his Sacred Heart today, we pray earnestly for peace: first, for peace in our hearts, but also for peace in our families, in our country, and throughout the world: Heart of Jesus, our peace and our reconciliation, have mercy on us!”

(Address of Pope John Paul II on June 7, 1999, in Toruń, Poland)
