St. Gumbertus, Ansbach
St. Gumbertus, Ansbach, Medieval Lutheran church and former monastery in Ansbach, Germany
St. Gumbertus is a church complex with three spires, where the two flanking octagonal towers date from the 15th century and the central tower was built in 1594. The ensemble displays architectural features from different periods.
The monastery was founded around 750 by Saint Gumbert and evolved into a collegiate church in the 11th century. It became Protestant during the Reformation in 1563 and has remained Lutheran since.
The church remains central to community worship and is actively used by local Lutheran congregants today. Visitors can experience how the building continues to serve its spiritual role in modern times.
The complex is open to visitors for exploration and observation. The building regularly hosts musical performances and cultural events throughout the year.
A special chapel houses the tombs of members of a historical knightly order. The sarcophagi date from the 17th century and demonstrate the building's importance to the local ruling family.
