Facts and practical information

Neu St. Alban is a parish church in the Neustadt-Nord district of Cologne in the northern corner of the Stadtgarten. The church was built in 1958/1959 from rubble bricks according to plans by Hans Schilling. Among other things, building material from the Cologne Opera, which was slightly damaged in World War II and demolished in 1958, was used. From the church Alt St. Alban next to the Gürzenich, preserved furnishings were taken over.
