Before the refugees can move in, the seats have to be taken away. Also the altar, the pulpit and font are movable, the superintendent of the church district Oberhausen, pastor Joachim Deterding said.

The sanitary facilities with washing machines will be put in containers next to the church. The church even wants to get involved in taking care of the refugees.
