Friedenskirche, Gothic Revival church in Kesselstadt district, Hanau, Germany

The Friedenskirche features a double-nave layout with three bays, incorporating a main nave for the entrance area and an organ loft.

Archaeological excavations under the church revealed Celtic remains, a Roman stone castle, and medieval findings from the 8th and 9th centuries.

The church displays artistic elements including representations of four Evangelists above side windows and a gold-medal-winning oil painting of Christ's burial.

The church building contains four bells within its 49.5-meter tower and maintains regular religious services for the local community.

The tower houses one of the few remaining mechanical clocks in Hanau, requiring manual winding procedures twice per week.
