St. Peter und Paul, Ratingen, Gothic church in Ratingen, Germany.

St. Peter und Paul is a Roman Catholic parish church between Ratingen's Marktplatz and the streets Kirchgasse and Oberstraße. Its core is a three-aisled, five-bay Gothic hall church of the late 13th century, replacing a Romanesque building with two choir-flank towers (mid-12th century) and a four-storey west tower (first half of the 13th century). Heinrich Wiethase's 1892–1894 extension added a two-aisled neo-Gothic transept, an extra bay and a hexagonal choir with tent roof; the west tower carries a pointed spire.

St. Peter und Paul began as a Romanesque church with two choir flank towers (mid-12th century) and a four-storey west tower (first half of the 13th century). Around the end of the 13th century it was replaced by a three-aisled, five-bay Gothic hall church. In 1892–1894 Heinrich Wiethase added a two-aisled neo-Gothic transept, extended the nave eastward by one bay and built a hexagonal choir with a tent roof; the west tower received a spire. Damaged in the Second World War, it was repaired step by step, renovated in the 1970s and again in 1996–1998 after the east towers threatened to collapse.

The church serves as a place for worship and concerts, where visitors can encounter religious artworks spanning different periods. The spaces invite people to engage with music and sacred art that has shaped the character of the community over centuries.

The church stands between Ratingen's Marktplatz and the streets Kirchgasse and Oberstraße, in the town centre. The west tower with its pointed spire and the two eastern choir flanking towers mark the building from afar. Visitors should check current opening times before setting out, since access depends on parish use.

The west tower holds eight bells, three of them medieval. The largest, the Marienglocke (also called Merg or Märch), is counted among the finest Gothic bells of the Rhineland alongside Cologne Cathedral's Pretiosa and Speciosa. The other five were added after the war, replacing three bells of 1926 destroyed in the Second World War.
