Altstädter Kirche, Protestant church in Hofgeismar, Germany.

The Altstädter Kirche displays both Romanesque and Gothic architectural elements, including sound arcades in the west tower and a Gothic portal from 1330.

Construction of the Altstädter Kirche began in the 12th century, and in 1535 it transformed from a collegiate church to serve as the Protestant parish church.

The church contains the Hofgeismar Altar from 1310, which depicts the Passion of Christ through detailed medieval craftsmanship and artistry.

Regular Protestant services take place in the church, while guided tours allow visitors to examine the historical architecture and medieval features.

The church entrance features a Romanesque door pull shaped like a lion's head, representing the preservation of original medieval architectural details.
