St. Catherine's Church, Baroque church in Frankfurt's Hauptwache district, Germany
The Lutheran church features a central tower, symmetrical baroque architecture, and large stained glass windows designed by renowned German artists.
Built between 1678 and 1681 by architect Melchior Heßler, the church underwent reconstruction from 1950 to 1954 after destruction during World War II.
The church maintains a strong musical tradition, with Georg Philipp Telemann serving as the municipal music director from 1712 to 1721.
St. Catherine's Church opens daily from noon to 6 PM, offering regular services, midday prayers, and organ concerts in its main hall.
Four distinct organs reside within the church walls, including the notable Rieger organ that contributes to the building's acoustic excellence.
