2021, 7 Chapels, County Dillingen

Thomas Wechs Preis – Honorable Mention

The regional architecture prize is awarded every three years by the Association of German Architects BDA Augsburg-Schwaben. The Siegfried and Elfriede Denzel Foundation commissioned seven architects, in addition to our office Hans Engel, John Pawson, Wilhelm Huber, Frank Lattke, Alen Jasarevic and Christoph Mäckler, to design wooden chapels along newly created bike paths in the district of Dillingen. 

Our chapel fits into a small group of trees with a slender wooden tower, that is visible from afar. The chapel space, open to the landscape and formed of wooden slats, is bounded by a cross, which the wooden supporting structure draws into the opening.
