Chapelle Sainte-Marie de Wurtzbourg, Gothic church at Market Square, Würzburg, Germany.

The Pfarrkirche features three Gothic portals, five bays with octagonal pillars, and a 72-meter tower crowned by a golden Madonna statue.

Construction began in 1377 under Bishop Gerhard von Schwarzburg, with the choir consecrated in 1392 and main structure completed by 1441.

The church displays replicas of Adam and Eve sculptures by Tilman Riemenschneider, while the originals remain in the Mainfränkisches Museum.

The church underwent extensive restoration between 1996 and 2003, addressing structural repairs and preserving its architectural elements for future generations.

The final resting place of Baroque architect Balthasar Neumann lies within the chapel, connecting the building to German architectural history.
