Facts and practical information

Maria-Hilf-Kirche, officially St. Mary, Helper of Christians, is a Catholic parish church in Hürben, the eastern part of Krumbach. It was built between 1966 and 1968 and is the largest church built after World War II in southern Germany. The fact that such a large church was built is related to the fact that the population of Krumbach approximately doubled after the war due to the influx of displaced persons and grew even more in the following years. The building was planned by the Ulm architects Manfred Wacker and Erich Niederbacher.
