St. Stephan, Protestant church building in Bamberg, Germany
The St. Stephan church stands on the easternmost hill of Bamberg, featuring a Greek cross layout and a medieval tower from 1235.
In 1020, Pope Benedict VIII consecrated the original church during Easter celebrations, marking the first papal visit north of the Alps in 200 years.
The church contains an organ built between 2003 and 2008 by Mühleisen, based on a historic organ design from 1710.
Regular concerts and cultural events take place in the church and adjacent Stephanshof, with guided tours available throughout the week.
Ten bells constitute the church's chime system, including a Gothic bell from the 14th century that integrates with nine modern bells from 1961.
