Marktkirche St. Nicolai, Gothic church in Hameln, Germany

The Marktkirche St. Nicolai features pointed arches, ribbed vaults, and flying buttresses, exemplifying traditional German Gothic ecclesiastical architecture of the 13th century.

Archaeological findings in 1957 revealed foundations of an earlier single-nave chapel with a western tower dating from the first half of the 12th century.

The church maintains regular performances by the Hamelner Kantorei choir, presenting both classical compositions and modern works in its Gothic interior.

The church opens Wednesday through Sunday from 12:00 to 16:00, offering guided tours in multiple languages that detail its architectural and historical elements.

The sandstone baptismal font from the early 17th century displays intricate fruit garlands and angel heads in the Weser Renaissance style.
