Reformed town church, Protestant church building in Burgdorf, Switzerland.
The Reformed Town Church displays Gothic architecture with pointed arches, ribbed vaults, and a 72-meter-high tower containing six bells.
Construction of the Reformed Town Church began in 1471 and concluded in 1490, replacing an earlier religious structure from approximately 1200.
The Reformed Town Church represents Protestant architectural expression and contains the most valuable late Gothic rood screen found in Switzerland.
Located at Kirchbühl 24 in Burgdorf, the church maintains its position as both an active place of worship and heritage site at 572 meters elevation.
Five of the six bells in the church tower were cast in 1865, creating a distinct sound pattern that rings across the Emmental region.
