Sacred lighting: Rochus chapel Bingen am Rhein

The St. Rochus chapel in Bingen am Rhein is a pilgrimage church that is enthroned on a hill south-east of the city and can be seen from afar. Not only many citizens of Bingen regard the church, built in 1895 in the neo-Gothic style, as an important cultural asset of Bingen. It has been part of the UNESCO World Heritage Upper Middle Rhine Valley since 2002.

The new lighting concept for the Rochus Chapel extends like a "golden triptych" across the newly restored Mary Altar, Rochus Altar, and Hildegard Altar. A total of 48 FLASHAARPicoSpot luminaires direct their warm white light onto the altars' artistic treasures, highlighting their details. The high color rendering quality, with a CRI of typically 95, makes the colors highly visible. The gilding, in particular, shines brilliantly thanks to the balanced red spectral component of the light.
