With the design of the stained-glass windows, Johannes Hewel (1947–2009) created a multifaceted body of work. The guiding idea of the glass artist was “communication”. The motifs were created for a place where the encounter between people and the reality of God is the central theme. Hewel used a wide range of techniques in creating the motifs: screen printing, airbrush fused into the glass, frosting, and three-dimensional work created through sandblasting. Because the lighting conditions change, the motifs can be discovered anew again and again. A particular highlight when entering the chapel is often said to be the window in the niche on the left side of the altar wall: deep-blue glass, mouth-blown and held together with lead cames using the technique of medieval stained-glass windows.
