St. Johannes Baptist

The church features a 42-meter western tower with pointed arch portal, stained glass windows depicting scenes from Mary and John the Baptist's life.

First mentioned in 1295, the current stone structure was built between 1833 and 1836, incorporating elements from the previous building including wall blocks.

The northern side altar displays a painting by Paderborn court painter Johann Georg Rudolphi, representing God the Father, Mary, and Christ.

Located at Marktstraße 9 in Borgentreich, North Rhine-Westphalia, the church maintains regular religious services and welcomes visitors throughout the year.

The church houses Germany's largest preserved spring chest organ, built between 1630 and 1730, which was installed in 1803 and restored in 2010.
