Evangelische Stadtkirche, Gothic church in Dillenburg, Germany

The Evangelische Stadtkirche stands on a steep slope of the Dillenberg, featuring late Gothic architecture with a single-nave hall and a western tower.

Construction of the church began in 1490 above the burial site of the Ottonian line of the Counts of Nassau and received consecration in 1491.

The church transformed into a Protestant institution in 1530, marking a significant change in religious practice for the Dillenburg community.

The church maintains regular opening hours and offers guided tours through its crypt, where visitors can examine historical tombstones and sarcophagi.

The church bell tower contains three steel bells and a historic bronze bell from 1510, known as the Walpurgis Bell.
