Saint Petronilla Church, Catholic parish church in Handorf district, Münster, Germany

Saint Petronilla Church features a Gothic revival bell tower, transept, recessed choir, and sacristy within its architectural composition.

The initial wooden structure from 1030 was replaced around 1300 when the parish community established, with the current building completed near 1700.

The church presents a Romanesque baptismal font crafted from Baumberger sandstone and an oil painting of the crucifixion from before 1850.

Sunday services occur at 11 AM with broadcasts available for remote participation, while special events include concerts and candlelight ceremonies.

The church tower height was reduced during World War II due to its proximity to a military airfield before being rebuilt in the 1970s.
