St. Lambertus, Gothic parish church in Ascheberg, Germany.
St. Lambertus is a late Gothic parish church in Ascheberg with a hall design featuring four bays, high vaults, and stained glass windows showing fish bladder patterns. The building combines medieval architecture with later additions including a rectangular choir added in the 1700s.
The church was first recorded in 1022 as one of the original parishes founded by Saint Liudger. A rectangular choir designed by architect Johann Conrad Schlaun was added in the 1700s.
The interior displays a carved altar piece from the 1600s and an octagonal baptismal font that shape how the church looks and feels inside. These furnishings are central to the appearance of the worship space.
The building serves as a starting point for walking routes through Ascheberg and the surrounding area. A comfortable visit is possible since the church is centrally located and easily accessible on foot.
The bell tower houses six bronze bells from different periods, including historic pieces from the early 1500s and modern additions from the late 1900s. This collection shows how the sound of the church has changed over the centuries.
