Vista e rivista in più occasioni. L'ultima visita risale al mese scorso. Le tribolate vicende costruttive della chiesa (concepita a metà degli anni '60 secolo scorso dal finlandese Alvar Aalto, con pr... more »

Sight and magazine on multiple occasions. The last visit dates back to last month. The troubled construction of the Church (designed in the mid-' 60 century from Finnish Alvar Aalto, with project developed after his death by his wife, realized then since 1976 with a significant reduction of construction by a local technician who replaced the planned large curved wooden beams with precast prestressed concrete, construction and completion of the churchyard only 30 years later) invalidated the sense of secular spirituality and "Protestant". Dominates the reason that takes over the mystical sense of religion. Great attention is paid to the "genius loci" near the River Rhine, so there remains a sense of naturalness to the building, despite its size quite impressive in the building. A very informative visit and a consequent reflection on how to handle the "sacred" that lives within us.

I am very familiar with the work of Aalto having visited Finland; I'm not an architect, but his style seems to be synthesized as rational, see some colleges and the construction of terraced buildings in his native country. Here instead the imagination, almost irrational had sioravvento; from the outside it looks like an old factory by jagged profile, but inside (if you can find the entrance that is placed on the left coming from the parking lot) is characterized by beautiful white ridges that refine the structure making it in his own way homey although strips (the baptistery is a perfect example ...) and ridiculously high and wide.
