Marienkirche, Lutheran church in central Dortmund, Germany.

The Marienkirche stands 42.4 meters tall, constructed from sandstone, combining Romanesque and Gothic architectural elements in its design and structure.

Built between 1170 and 1200 as Capella Regis near the imperial palace, the church received visits from Emperor Frederick I Barbarossa during its early years.

The church displays two notable medieval artworks: the Berswordtaltar from 1385 and the Marienaltar created by Conrad von Soest in 1420.

Weekly services take place every Sunday at 10 AM, with regular guided tours exploring the architectural features and medieval art collections.

The 1972 renovation introduced new stained glass windows by Johannes Schreiter, designed with subdued colors to complement the medieval altars.
