The Pauluskirche is located at Grabenstrasse 9, just 5 minutes walk from Bochum Central Station, and directly adjacent to the underground/subway station Rathaus (lines U35, 302, 306, 310). The church's location is marked on the map below. We do strongly recommend that you use public transport for travelling to church, especially since the tiny churchyard around the Pauluskirche is unsuitable for parking cars

If you do travel to church by car, there is a limited number of free parking spaces near the church at Bleichstrasse and Victoriastrasse (next to the Post Office), and a larger choice at the market square just behind Bochum railway station, as well as on-street parking along Ferdinandstrasse. Don't shy away from parking meters / ticket machines. Many of these are free on Sundays in the city centre

Alternatively, some of the underground car parks directly in the city are also open on Sundays - P2 beneath Dr-Ruer-Platz and P5 on Brückstrasse are open from 10-24 hrs on Sundays, and P8, slightly farther away at Konrad-Adenauer-Platz / Bermuda Dreieck is open Sundays round the clock from 0-24 hrs (the price for parking varies in these car parks from 0.80 to 1.10 Euro per hour).
