Diözesanes Zentrum Sankt Nikolaus, Limburg an der Lahn

The Diocesan Centre Saint Nicholas is being built at the Domberg hill and in direct neighbourhood to the famous Dome of Limburg. A historic natural stone wall spans the property. The gateway is being flanked by a frame house built in the 16th century on the one side and a house built in the 18th century on the other side. The east-west oriented estate with a little chapel maintains a dialogue with the Dome of Limburg.
The light concept reflects the east-west orientation. All rooms are luminated in an integrated light reduced to the minimum which makes them places of clarity and silence.
