St. Martin parish church, Structure of worship in Olten, Switzerland.
The St. Martin parish church features three naves in a columned basilica design, representing Romanesque Revival architecture without a transept.
Built in 1910 by architect August Hardegger, the church replaced a temporary structure from 1876 that served the Roman Catholic community.
The church holds the distinction of being the largest clearance church in Canton Solothurn, exceeding the capacity of Solothurn Cathedral.
Located near the city center and main railway station, the church welcomes visitors daily and maintains regular religious services throughout the year.
The current organ, installed by Mathis Orgelbau in 1992, contains 50 stops distributed across three manuals and a pedal system.
