Pauluskirche, Gothic church on Wörth island in Bad Kreuznach, Germany.
The Pauluskirche stands on an island between the old and new parts of Bad Kreuznach with a three-nave Gothic structure and a roof turret. The interior houses two organs, including a large instrument with 43 registers that fills the space with sound.
Construction began in the early 1300s under Count Johann II of Sponheim and took roughly two decades to complete. The structure later suffered damage from floods and conflicts but was repeatedly restored over time.
The church functions as a venue for regular concerts and musical performances that draw visitors throughout the year. You can experience the acoustic qualities of the interior and see how the space serves the local community beyond traditional worship.
The church is located at Kurhausstraße 6 and is relatively easy to reach since it sits on an island in the town center. Before visiting, check for upcoming performances or services, as musical events and worship occur regularly throughout the year.
The building once served multiple religious communities at the same time, reflecting the region's shifting faith history. This arrangement shows how sacred spaces adapted to periods of religious change.
