Mariä Himmelfahrt, Gothic church in Kirchheim am Ries, Germany.

Constructed during the transition from Romanesque to Gothic architecture, this church exemplifies the architectural evolution that began in Germany during the 12th century.

The stone carvings and stained glass windows within the church narrate biblical stories, serving as educational tools for the medieval congregation.

The church's locally sourced stone materials and regional construction techniques create distinct variations from standard Gothic architectural patterns.
