User:Gerda Arendt, is it a peace church in the sense of Peace churches? I'm asking not just because of the wikilink matter and whether the source bear out the connection to that article, but also because without it it's not quite clear what its function is in the lead. And for "Wörsdorf had only few Catholic inhabitants until the end of World War II, when many people arrived as refugees"--I see now in the source that these are "katholischen Flüchtlingen und Heimatvertriebenen aus Schlesien, Ostpreußen, dem Sudetenland und Ungarn". I think you should add that. My initial interest was piqued because I thought this would be a nice opportunity to link to what German Catholicism after WW2 referred to as the Catholic Diaspora (and the put Boniface on that, of course), but we have no such article, nothing even close. Anyway, I think adding those areas is helpful to the non-expert reader, and I wish there was an article on the situation of Catholics in East Germany, and on the difficult position of the church over there. It's fascinating material, and you can read about some of it in my book. ;-) Drmies (talk) 22:57, 21 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]
I didn't know that article/concept, - good question. I think the answer is no, not in that specific sense. Many churches after World War II were named Friedenskirche, in a broad sense, afaik. --Gerda Arendt (talk) 23:02, 21 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]
