St. Kiliani, Protestant church in Höxter, Germany

St. Kiliani features two towers with the north reaching 48 meters and the south 45.65 meters, forming a prominent part of the Höxter cityscape.

The original structure from 800 AD was replaced by a Romanesque basilica in 1100, which underwent a major transformation into a two-aisled hall church between 1391 and 1412.

The church contains a preserved baroque organ from 1710, representing the musical traditions of the Protestant congregation in North Rhine-Westphalia.

The church building participates in the Open Churches Initiative of the Evangelical Church of Westphalia, allowing visitors to explore its architectural elements.

Lightning struck the north tower in 1901, causing a fire that required extensive reconstruction efforts lasting over one year to restore the structure.
