The Catholic parish church of St. Georg in Bad Fredeburg was built in 1932 according to plans by Karl Wibbe. It was built on the site of a predecessor church from 1827, which was replaced for structural reasons. Parts of the material were reused.


The building is a three-nave hall church with a striking, two-gabled tower dome - not originally planned, but a spontaneous solution that shaped the modern appearance.


The interior is dominated by clear lines and a minimalist color scheme. A renovation in the early 2000s deliberately created calm and space for works of art, particularly from the postmodern phase of the 1980s.


The triptych by Nikolaus Bette, supported by a seven-meter-high tree of life, is outstanding. It shows scenes from the Book of Revelation with people from different religions. His stained glass windows with biblical motifs and the liturgical elements made of slate and sandstone also date from this period.
