St. Severin, Romanesque Revival church in Mehlem, Germany
The St. Severin church features rounded arches, strong stone walls, and a prominent tower that rises above the Mehlem district landscape.
The original structure from 1181 faced multiple destructions, including during the Thirty Years' War and an 1860 lightning strike that spared only the tower.
The church interior displays religious artworks, including a half-figure of Christ King and apostle images in the apse created during the 1929 renovation.
The church contains a Johannes Klais organ with 23 registers and four bells, with the oldest bell dating from 1864 surviving both World Wars.
Between Koblenz and Bonn, St. Severin holds the distinction of having the tallest church tower, constructed by architect Paul Richard Thomann in 1863.
