St. Martin's Chapel

A chapel with an exceptional atmosphere for peace and quiet.

Inaugurated in 2009, Kapelle St. Martin is located in Südallee Street at the side entrance to the Protestant Abbey of St. Martin.

Particularly worth seeing is the chapel's eight-by-four-meter window, designed by renowned artist and rector of the Düsseldorf Art Academy Prof. Dr. Markus Lüpertz. It depicts the chapel's namesake on his horse and lends the chapel an extraordinary atmosphere.

The balanced architecture and harmoniously designed interior with natural materials and colors make the hospital chapel a place of peace and tranquility. Lüpertz deals intensively with religious guidelines and arrives at a solution that, for all its figurative orientation, bears his signature. Stylized snowflakes swirl around the saint on his horse and underscore the mercy of the mantle donation. Through its bright symbolic red, the mantle attracts the eye.
