St. Engelbert (Cologne-Riehl) is a well known example of 20th century ecclesiastical architecture. Its expressionistic shape and  the double cambered concrete shells are considered to be a great achievement by Dominikus Böhm. The church is mentioned in numerous publications, yet a monographical and comprehensive approach to the building is absent.The project will be based on a systematical evaluation of all existing documents and a survey of the building. Documents can be  found in the Böhm Archive, being part of the Historical City Archive of Cologne, as well as in the Historical Archive of the Archdiocese of Cologne and in the Parochial Archive of St. Engelbert. Especially the latter one has been entirely overlooked. A detailed survey and a precise documentation of the building is necessary, because there are no historical or modern drawings of  the executed project, neither of its current state.Combining the analysis of archival documents and methods of architectural documentation, it will be possible to develop a precise chronology of all alterations of the building. This is of particular importance as the original design scheme developed by Dominikus Böhm was not entirely executed. Especially the rooms in the basement are of varying conditions and have to be examined: Only one room was finished during the first construction phase of the 1930s, while the others remained as a shell of an unfinished building. After the addition of an air-raid shelter during World War II the original plans could not be realised and for that reason the main parts have been rendered usable only by simple design methods, while one room stayed unaltered in unfinished condition.Overall the project deals with two aspects. First, there will be a precise geometrical analysis of the double cambered concrete  shells in order to re-evaluate the importance of St. Engelbert for the history of building construction, with a special focus on  the early phase of concrete constructions. It is also intended to clarify wether the design of the church is an achievement of  engineering and structural design or the result of an adaptive application of historical design principles for vaults.The second aspect will be the analysis of the functional scheme. St. Engelbert has to be regarded as an early example of a catholic parochial center, in which all areas of community life are gathered in one building. Since many of the rooms were only partially completed, this aspect has not been considered yet. Starting with the analysis of a specific example, the typological development for the beginning of the 20th century will be examined and contextualised with contemporary catholic reform movements.

圣恩格尔伯特（脑炎ne-Riehl）是一个众所周知的例子，20世纪世纪教会建筑。它的表现主义形状和双弧形混凝土外壳被认为是Dominikus Böhm的伟大成就。许多出版物都提到了这座教堂，但却没有一个关于这座建筑的专题和全面的方法。该项目将基于对所有现有文件的系统评估和对建筑的调查。文件可以在作为科隆历史城市档案馆一部分的Böhm档案馆、科隆大主教区历史档案馆和圣恩格尔伯特教区档案馆中找到。尤其是后者被完全忽视了。对建筑物进行详细的调查和精确的记录是必要的，因为没有执行项目的历史或现代图纸，也没有其当前状态。结合档案文件和建筑记录方法的分析，可以制定建筑物所有改建的精确年表。这是特别重要的，因为Dominikus Böhm开发的原始设计方案没有完全执行。特别是地下室的房间条件各异，必须进行检查：只有一个房间在20世纪30年代的第一个施工阶段完成，而其他房间仍然是未完工建筑的外壳。在第二次世界大战期间增加了防空洞后，最初的计划无法实现，因此主要部分只能通过简单的设计方法来使用，而一个房间在未完成的情况下保持不变。总的来说，该项目涉及两个方面。首先，将对双拱形混凝土壳体进行精确的几何分析，以重新评估圣恩格尔伯特在建筑施工历史上的重要性，特别关注混凝土施工的早期阶段。同时也是为了澄清教堂的设计是工程和结构设计的成果，还是拱顶历史设计原则适应性应用的结果。第二个方面是功能方案分析。圣恩格尔伯特被认为是天主教教区中心的早期例子，社区生活的所有领域都聚集在一座建筑物中。由于许多房间只是部分完工，这方面尚未考虑。从分析一个具体的例子开始，我们将考察20世纪世纪初的类型学发展，并将其与当代天主教改革运动联系起来。
