Modernminimalis.com - Architecture. Although a role in the beginning began to prepare another architect, a native of the church entrusted to design, the architect Wolf D. Prix (COOP HIMMELB (L) AU) was a good choice. The result is original and yet modest building, with the author's approach to openness in the ideological and formal level.
The church is located in the historic center of Hainburg, slightly sloping land on a corner plot in a traditional urban block installation. Entrance is located at the bottom, where the author has created a pleasant minestrone without visually distorting the historic building line. In this area, which bought the building for the church of the city, initially, to 17 century, the church of St. Martin and cemetery. The church burned down during the Turkish wars, the cemetery has been canceled, but at the top of the block there are still well preserved medieval glossary, inspiring his dynamic curvilinear roof. Context sacred functions at this point is therefore natural. It also confirmed the requirement of Monuments Board that the parcel perimeter line by the side of the street is maintained cemetery fence. The proposal is presented to simply reconstructed fragment stone wall that you can not help but notice the white plaster walls of today's single-storey building.
The nearest neighborhood is small-town traditional two-storey development with narrow streets and obviously it was not easy to maintain volume context and also bring a sacred object of the spiritual dimension of the message. But as we have seen in the COOP HIMMELB (L) AU decades ago to handle roof country, this approach has worked well here. One-floor building, the front facade of expressive rugged, has deliberately amorphous dynamic roof modeled to receive light from above in all areas. The vertical dimension of the concept and then subtly confirms soft sculptural bell located in the foreland of the input. Standing in the corner, at the junction of the lines is vertical transcendent symbol of man's relationship to his Creator. Standing with her ... or under it, man is no longer in the current public space. By skillfully on a small area of intersection divided by the area of streets belonging temple.
Upon entering the building easy to navigate our longitudinal, top-lit hall, to which are connected from one side of the premises of local pastoral center: sacred space, social space (community hall), and the other party office (by the way with ten original nearly 100-year molars from former sacred space in a villa), kitchen, technical and social background. Composition axis led light, representing the path of human life, resulting transparent to the garden, where he planted apple believer. It is reminiscent of the initiator of construction, already deceased priest Hielscher. The tree in the garden, which is also a symbol of paradise tree, as well as referring to Luther's words: "If I knew that tomorrow I die today, I planted an apple tree."

Own space to worship hall is divided by its architectural design - specially prepared gray wall and a slight rotation in plan. In principle, the concept of open space: the space can be extended with sliding walls and ideological opens vertically upwards - the sky, as well as horizontally to the street - to the people. Light is a phenomenon that is for the construction of this essential element. The actual illumination of liturgical space with three large skylights is not the only one found it well-lit community halls, as well as ancillary facilities. Usage is semantically differentiated. The hall is liturgical formation skylights dynamically - if shorten area pointed to the dynamism of the Word of God, shaping matter to spirit, recalling the act of creation - the formation of Creation. At the same time there is a present to understand the symbolism of the Trinity, referring to the number of Divine Persons. A modern altar is at first sight as though molded futuristic sculptor, his dynamic shapes are derived from a "kazateľnicového" altar, known as the Lutheran tradition. It combines the sacrificial table (altar) of the counter, creating a space at the bottom of the Holy Sepulcher. Near-standing font is simple, rudimentary cylindrical body. As if expressed durability.
Recalls the Romanesque elements and thus is a reminder of the traditions of the place. Face, turned to the hall and into the street, is created in the form of a wooden panel and perforated circles ulcerous central cross-shaped, which secures the Christian symbolism. The cross becomes a luminous cross, symbolizing Christ's redemptive action. The interior space for its worship space in the form of the material and color solutions is concentrated, moderate activity. White areas, concludes a wooden wall, dark gray, and designed surfaces facing glazed areas operate in a balanced harmony. The symbolic context as Luther's rose colored glass on the table. The celebration of worship and the creation of community is the role of the Christian church today. In Hainburg can characterize the result of a new work for the faithful as joy and community life. And one more thing. Construction of the Lutheran church in Hainburg is not only evidence of the architectural and artistic experience. The proof of ecumenical cooperation with the local Catholic community. Both Christian communities in the development work together. During the building used for worship catholic church, the roof was composed and assembled on site like a Catholic parish. Both communities to show something more - affinity in the Christian spirit.
