Georgenkirche Eisenach, Gothic church in Eisenach, Germany.
The St. George's Church features a neo-baroque tower reaching 62 meters high and contains five bells in its main tower structure.
The church dates back to 1196 and underwent multiple reconstructions, maintaining its Gothic hall design through centuries of architectural modifications.
Johann Sebastian Bach received his baptism in this church in 1685, marking the beginning of a long musical tradition lasting over 130 years.
Visitors can access the church Monday through Saturday from 10:00 to 12:30 and 14:00 to 17:00, with modified hours on Sundays.
The late Gothic baptismal font from 1503 used during Bach's christening continues to serve the congregation in present-day ceremonies.
