St. Johann, Gothic church in Osnabrück, Germany
The Protestant church features two Gothic spires and contains a medieval altarpiece with sections exhibited at the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York.
Construction of St. Johann began in the 13th century and continued until the 15th century, with the building serving as a meeting place for Swedish diplomats during peace negotiations.
The church maintains its Protestant identity since 1543, marking a significant shift in the religious identity of Osnabrück and the surrounding region.
The church underwent extensive restoration following severe fire damage in 1945, with additional repairs completed between 1990 and 1992 to preserve the structure.
St. Johann functioned as a court church due to its location near the prince-bishops' residence, established in 1669, influencing its role in local governance.
