New St. John's Church

The New St. John's Church features a 97-meter-high tower and combines Gothic Revival architecture with elements of the Maximilianstil design movement.

Construction of the church began in the 1840s to accommodate the growing population of Haidhausen, with final completion of the tower occurring in 1870.

The church maintains six bells, including a bronze bell from 1869 and five cast steel bells added in 1948, which ring daily for religious ceremonies.

Located at Johannisplatz 22 in Munich's Haidhausen district, the church conducts regular religious services and welcomes visitors throughout the week.

The largest bell of New St. John's Church rings every Friday at 3 PM to commemorate the death of Christ and at noon for the Angelus prayer.
