St. Marienkirche, Lutheran church in Minden, Germany

St. Marienkirche stands as a three-nave hall church with Gothic side aisles and a tower added around 1255 in the center of Minden.

The church emerged from a women's monastery founded in the late 10th century and received its consecration between 1036 and 1056 by Bishop Bruno.

The Renaissance baptismal font from 1598, created by sculptor Kleffemeier from Obernkirchen, represents the artistic heritage of the church.

The congregation serves over 16,000 members across five districts with six preaching locations, including Albert-Schweitzer-Haus and St. Matthäuskirche.

The church building contains a Gothic tower chapel that functioned as a choir specifically designated for the collegiate ladies.
