Jakobikirche, Gothic church in Rotenburg an der Fulda, Germany
The Jakobikirche features a two-aisle hall structure with eleven windows adorned with fish bladder tracery and a tower topped by a classical dome.
The church foundations date to 1248, with the current building consecrated in 1495 after reconstruction following the city fire of 1478.
The church interior contains a 1556 organ on the chancel gallery and an alabaster altar from 1581, transferred from Rotenburg Palace chapel in 1790.
Located at Marktplatz 1 in Rotenburg an der Fulda, the church belongs to the Evangelical Church of Kurhessen-Waldeck and regularly hosts services.
The west portal displays historical measuring units engraved into the stone, serving as official measurement standards for the medieval town.
