Église Saint-Jean de Strasbourg, Gothic church near train station, Strasbourg, France

Saint John's Church features a single nave with a decorated ceiling and dual-lancet windows that provide natural illumination throughout the interior space.

Built in 1477 as Saint Mark's Convent church, it suffered severe damage during the 1944 bombings and underwent reconstruction between 1962 and 1964.

The Monastic Fraternities of Jerusalem conduct daily services in this church, maintaining liturgical traditions that date back to early Christian centuries.

The church schedules regular liturgical services, Sacred Host adoration periods, and maintains weekly hours for confessions and spiritual guidance.

From 1940 to 1942, the church functioned as a secret gathering point for escaped prisoners of war through the Pur Sang resistance network.
