Evangelische Stadtkirche Hungen, Romanesque church in Hungen, Germany.
The Evangelische Stadtkirche Hungen is a church with four distinct architectural sections combining Romanesque through Renaissance elements. The structure spans from Romanesque foundations to extensions added over several periods.
The lower tower shaft originates from the 12th century, with upper floors added in the mid-13th century. The nave was constructed between 1596 and 1608, reflecting the building's transformation across several centuries.
The interior displays flat ceilings with geometric stucco patterns and wall paintings from around 1600 that were uncovered during renovation work. These decorations show how the local community decorated their place of worship during the early modern period.
The building is currently undergoing renovation work, so regular services have been temporarily relocated. Visitors should check in advance which areas are accessible and what special opening times may apply.
The church holds three bells, with the largest known locally as 'Dicke Susanne'. This bell connects to local stories from the Thirty Years' War and speaks to the region's turbulent past.
