St. Simeonis, Gothic church in Minden, Germany.
St. Simeonis is a Gothic church building in Minden with pointed arch windows and slender pillars. The interior displays the classic three-aisle hall church structure with ribbed vault ceilings.
The church was founded in 1214 and underwent several reconstruction phases during the Gothic and Renaissance periods. Despite structural changes, it retains essential medieval features.
The church bears the name of Saint Simeon and serves as a religious landmark in the old town. Today it functions as a community space that shapes the character of the church district.
The building stands at the southern edge of the old town between the cathedral and St. Martini church. It is easily accessible on foot and located centrally in Minden's church district.
In 2016 the church received specialized exterior lighting that highlights its silhouette after dark. This lighting installation makes the building a visual landmark for visitors when night falls.
