St. Johannes Baptist, Parish church in Jena, Germany
St. Johannes Baptist features a rectangular nave and semicircular apse, with its structure following early Romanesque architectural principles.
Founded in the 10th century, the church underwent changes from a parish church to a burial church before Napoleon I established a parish foundation.
The church maintains regular services and religious ceremonies while functioning as a central gathering point for the Catholic community in Jena.
Located at Wagnergasse 34 in Jena, the church provides wheelchair access and maintains an information office for visitors seeking guidance.
The building preserves elements from its original Romanesque chapel despite experiencing numerous architectural modifications over its thousand-year existence.
