Klosterkirche Oldenstadt, Romanesque church in Uelzen, Germany
The Klosterkirche Oldenstadt exhibits fieldstone construction with 11-meter-high walls and 8-meter-wide crossing arches in its three-nave basilica structure.
Built between 1150 and 1200, this church originated from a canoness foundation established in 973 by Emperor Otto II and Bishop Bruno of Verden.
The church functions as part of the Evangelical Lutheran congregation of Oldenstadt, featuring a classical altar with a triangular eye symbol representing the Trinity.
The church opens weekdays from 9:30 to 11:30, offering guided tours through its medieval architecture upon advance reservation.
Archaeological excavations between 1970 and 1973 revealed two predecessor buildings beneath the current structure, including a wooden single-nave construction.
