Klosterkirche, Gothic church in Blomberg, Germany.

The Klosterkirche is a Gothic church building in Blomberg featuring pointed arches, ribbed vaults, and buttresses. The structure displays the characteristic features of medieval German ecclesiastical architecture with its soaring walls and stone details.

Built from 1462 on the site of a reputedly healing well, the church was completed around 1485 for the Augustinian canons of Zum Heiligen Leichnam, who came from Möllenbeck in 1468. The monastery was dissolved in 1569 during the Reformation, and in 1651 Count Johann Bernhard gave church and grounds to Blomberg. Since the Martinikirche was demolished in 1833, it has been the town's only parish church.

The church shapes the spiritual life of the town and serves today for worship and community gatherings. It remains a gathering place for people who feel connected to Blomberg's long past.

You can view the building from the outside and admire its architecture. For visits inside, it is best to check ahead since regular services take place and may affect access.

The well that sparked the pilgrimage lies beneath the church floor and is now built over. A monument on Blomberg's market square commemorates Alheyd Pustekoke, the citizen whose theft of hosts in 1460 led to her execution and to the church's founding.
