Ringkirche

Ringkirche is a church building in Romanesque Revival style with a distinctive circular floor plan and thick stone walls. Tall windows filled with stained glass puncture the walls and flood the unusual interior space with colored light.

The building was designed by Johannes Otzen in 1894 as an example of 19th-century church architecture in Hesse. Its execution reflects the architectural preferences and design language of Romanesque Revival popular during that era.

The church continues to host regular worship and draws people interested in its distinctive round shape and interior design. Its location on the Ring street gives it prominence in the city, making it a visible landmark for locals and visitors alike.

The church is located centrally on Ring street and is easily reached on foot; visitors can find information about entering at the main door. Those wanting to experience the interior should check opening times or service schedules in advance.

The circular floor plan was an unusual choice for churches when it was built and required innovative construction techniques of the 1890s to realize. This design created a central worship space where all visitors face the pulpit equally from all sides.
