Evangelische Pfarrkirche St. Pankratius

The St. Pankratius Protestant Church features green sandstone walls, a wide transept, and a three-sided choir that rises above the low nave structure.

The church originated around 1100 as a private chapel for the Manor of Mark, later becoming the mother church of Hamm until 1337.

The interior walls display extensive 14th-century frescoes that form a complete painted sermon, representing medieval religious art in Westphalia.

The church maintains regular Protestant services and welcomes visitors at Kirchplatz in Hamm, with tourist information available at the nearby Insel center.

The 13th-century baptismal font, crafted from Baumberger sandstone, stands as the oldest furnishing within the church structure.
