St. Lamberti

St. Lamberti is a parish church in Gladbeck that displays traditional ecclesiastical architecture with a distinctive facade in the town center. The building has shaped the townscape for generations.

The church emerged during Gladbeck's early development when the settlement was first documented in 1020 with about 300 inhabitants. The building survived the widespread destruction of World War II that severely damaged the town center.

The church serves as a focal point for worship and shapes the rhythm of local community life in the town. People gather here for religious holidays and regular celebrations throughout the year.

The site is easily accessible on foot in the town center and provides a quiet place to spend time. Information about visiting hours and tours is available at the entrance.

The church stands near Wittringen Castle, and together these two sites form distinctive landmarks in the town. Walking through the area reveals how both structures anchor the local sense of place.
