St. Jakobi, Mühlhausen/Thüringen, Gothic church building in Mühlhausen, Germany
The St. Jakobi Church features a central spire reaching 86.7 meters and contains a five-aisled hall with slender columns supporting the structure.
The church's first mention dates to 1296 as a subsidiary of St. Mary's Church, while archaeological excavations revealed an earlier church from the 11th century.
The building underwent transformation from a Catholic church to Lutheran denomination and now functions as the municipal library of Mühlhausen.
The church stands at Sankt Jakobi 1 near Lentzeplatz, within the medieval city fortifications, and opens as a public library with regular visiting hours.
During the German Peasants' War of 1525, Thomas Müntzer served as pastor at St. Jakobi, making it a central location for social movements.
