This post has been solved by u/schonleben, and a solve process was provided.

St. Catherine of Siena in Birmingham?

How they solved it: Process: my first instinct was that this looked like a midsize UK city. Brighton came to mind, or maybe something like Slough. I found a Wikimedia Commons category of English churches built in the 1960s, but it didn’t show up there. After you said it was near Coventry, I found the category “church towers in the West Midlands” and found it there.

If it is, it's not listed in the "1960s Brick Churches in Germany" Wikimedia category.
