Margarethenkirche, Medieval church in Gehrden, Germany.

The Margarethenkirche is a church building in Gehrden with a distinctive stone tower featuring stepped gables made of limestone. The structure rises prominently and shows the architectural design typical of religious buildings in this region.

The tower began construction around 1250 and shows the shift from Romanesque to Gothic architecture. At that time, the building served both religious and defensive purposes for the community.

The entrance shows religious carvings that reflect medieval craftsmanship and artistry. These details tell stories that visitors encounter as soon as they approach the building.

The building is located on Kirchstraße 4 and the exterior is always accessible to visitors. Regular services take place here, so the interior may have limited access at certain times.

The tower houses five bells, with one dating to 1355 that ranks among the oldest in the region. This particular bell is a rare example of medieval metalwork and sound traditions.
