Over the past decades, the number of religious spaces in German cities has grown. Alongside established institutions, new voices are jostling for participation in the engagement with and the coexistence of different religious ideas and their architectural expression.
Using Jewish, Christian, and Islamic religious buildings as examples, Sakralität im Wandel documents the sacral-topographical changes since 1990 both quantitatively and qualitatively. Focusing on the struggle for urban visibility, the book provides an important contribution to the overarching question of how architecture can both be an expression of social order and affect social dynamics.
Beate Loffler is a senior lecturer at TU Dortmund’s chair of the History and Theory of Architecture. Among other things, her research deals with architectural cultural transfer in a global context, the role of religious spaces in modern societies, and knowledge transfer in architecture.

Dunja Sharbat Dar is a research associate at the Center for Religious Studies (CERES) at the Ruhr-Universitat in Bochum. Her main research areas are religion and space, Japanese religion(s), popular culture, modern religion, and social research methods and theories.
