St. Andrew's Church, Lutheran church in Hildesheim, Germany
The Gothic church building measures 80 meters in length, 35 meters in width, and reaches a height of 114.5 meters with its tower.
The construction evolved from a chapel dedicated to Saint Andrew in 1022 to the current Gothic structure, completed with its tower in 1883.
The church marks the transition of power from bishops to citizens during the Middle Ages and became the first Lutheran church in Hildesheim in 1542.
Visitors can climb 364 steps to reach the observation point at the top of the tower for views across Hildesheim and the surrounding region.
Four bells, crafted between 1632 and 1963, ring from the tallest church tower in Lower Saxony, creating distinct musical combinations.
