Due to recent theft and vandalism, the Church of the Redeemer congregation in Mannheim's Seckenheim district will remain closed on weekdays.

On the Church's Website says: "Unfortunately there have been repeated thefts during the daily opening hours of our church. Therefore, the church will only be open for official events." Erloesergemeinde
