St.-Antonius-Basilika

The Saint Anthony Basilica stands 102.5 meters tall with red and gray arches inside its white interior space, spanning 90 meters in length.

The construction of this religious edifice took place between 1899 and 1905, during a period of substantial church building in northern Germany.

The basilica features sculptures at the crossing tower corners depicting local historical figures, including Charlemagne and Bishop Ludwig II.

The church accommodates 650 people and contains the Basilica Museum in its crypt, which displays liturgical artifacts and historical documents.

The bell system comprises seven steel bells crafted by Heinrich Humpert in 1919, each named after local donors of the period.
