Propsteikirche St. Georg, Gothic church in Vechta, Germany

The Propsteikirche St. Georg features a three-nave Westphalian hall design constructed with red bricks and topped by an Italian-style dome tower.

The church foundations date to 1452, with Swedish forces causing damage in 1654, leaving two cannonballs still embedded in the north wall.

The church holds precious silver artifacts, including a Madonna statue and arm reliquaries of Saint Alexander, brought to the location in 1699.

The parish office at Große Str. 34 opens Monday through Thursday from 8:00 AM to 5:30 PM and Fridays from 8:00 AM to 2:00 PM.

The church organ, built by Alfred Führer in 1963, contains 39 registers across three manuals and pedals, receiving modifications during 2018 renovations.
