ABUS Secvest wireless alarm system protects the art nouveau church of St Nicholas

The art nouveau Church of St Nicholas in Essen-Stoppenberg was built over 100 years ago and is one of the oldest churches in the region. With its artistic stained glass windows and magnificent chancel with intricate gold work it is both a place for reflection and an invaluable work of art. Hard to understand, then, how anyone could disturb the peace of the church, something which has sadly occurred on numerous occasions, with burglars having previously broken into the vestry, stolen items and even damaged the church itself. To draw a line under all this, an ABUS Secvest wireless alarm system has recently been installed to safeguard the church and adjoining rectory, ensuring that this historic church and the precious religious artefacts within are protected against vandalism and theft.
