Catholic Church

The old parish church in Nassau, a neo-Gothic building from the year 1875, proved to be increasingly too small in the years after World War II. Thus, the decision was made to construct a new parish church. The foundation stone was laid on 20.08.1961. In the months prior, the old church was demolished. The architect Dr. Ulrich Craemer from Trier had designed an unconventional concept for the new building: the house of worship was to represent a protective tent roof over all visitors, worshippers, and celebrants. On 28.10.1962, the first service could be celebrated in the new building. The consecration then took place ceremoniously on 12. June 1966 by Auxiliary Bishop Dr. Walter Kampe from Limburg. St. Bonifatius Nassau remained the parish church until 31.12.2012, until the establishment of the new type parish Bad Ems-Nassau.
