Johanneskirche, Gothic Revival church in Erbach, Germany.

The Johanneskirche features a three-nave hall design with slate-covered gable roof and octagonal pillars supporting cross ribbed vaults across four bays.

Princess Marianne von Oranien-Nassau commissioned the construction of this Protestant church between 1861 and 1865 to honor her son Johann Wilhelm.

The church maintains an early romantic organ built by Christian Friedrich Voigt in 1863, which produces distinct tones through various registers.

The church hosts 50 to 60 wedding ceremonies annually, drawing couples from throughout the Rhine-Main region to celebrate their marriages.

Two commemorative trees stand on the grounds: a Martin Luther Linden planted in 1883 and a Philipp Melanchthon Oak from 1884.
