Stephansplatz Bamberg

The parish of St. Stephan is the largest and oldest Bamberg parish of the Evangelical Lutheran Church in Bavaria. The Stephanshof, as a place of culture and meeting in the area of the church, should be designed open, friendly and barrier-free. At Stephanshof, not only the parish finds a new home, but also the parish office is housed in the buildings on Bamberg's Stephansplatz. Furthermore, concerts, theatre performances and cultural events of all kinds take place under its roof. The new courtyard is open, inviting and friendly. The entrance gate, the bright and translucent glass façade of the new foyer of the community centre and, in particular, the new square design of the inner courtyard with cobblestones made of Lasa marble implement the objectives of the planners architecturally. The luminosity of the courtyard is due not least to the special material properties of Lasa marble. On particularly sunny days, the light reflection due to the special crystal structure in the Lasa marble has such an effect that the square is best entered with sunglasses. The general renovation also meets the high standards of the old town of Bamberg, which has been protected by UNESCO since 1993. The use of Lasa's marble on the Stephansplatz enlivens the surrounding buildings and brings architectural-historical moments to life.
