St. Johannes Baptist, Catholic church in Delbrück, Germany

The St. Johannes Baptist church features a high leaning tower made of wood that reaches a height of 65 meters above ground level.

Construction of the church began around 1180 as a two-vault Romanesque basilica, with the Gothic choir and southern aisle added in approximately 1340.

The interior contains valuable religious artworks, including a 14th-century Pietà, a baroque double Madonna, and a high altar from Böddeken monastery.

Located in Kirchplatz, the church remains open to visitors daily from 8:00 AM until 8:00 PM, with guided tours available upon request.

The bell ensemble includes five historic pieces, with the oldest small clock bell dating back to the 12th century and still marking quarter hours.
