Stadtkirche St. Wenzel, Gothic church in Naumburg, Germany.

The Sankt Wenzel Church features a long single-nave choir, a short three-aisled nave, and a tower reaching 72 meters in height.

Construction of the church began in 1418 and was completed around 1500, marking a transition period in German religious architecture.

The church contains paintings from Lucas Cranach's workshop and houses the only authentic Bach organ built by Zacharias Hildebrandt in 1746.

The church opens daily from 10 AM to 5 PM between May and October, with reduced hours from 1 PM to 3 PM during other months.

The roof structure consists of multiple saddle roofs that form deep funnels between them, creating an advanced drainage system for its time.
