St. Gangolf, Parish church in Heinsberg, Germany.
The St. Gangolf church stands on Kirchberg hill with a 38-meter tower that overlooks the city of Heinsberg in North Rhine-Westphalia.
The foundation stone was placed around 1130 by Oda von Heinsberg, and the current Gothic hall church replaced the original Romanesque structure in the 15th century.
The church features a medieval crypt with historic frescoes, Gothic baptismal font from 1500, and elaborate tomb sculptures of the Heinsberg noble family.
The church contains 39 organ registers across three manuals and pedal, with mechanical controls installed by Seifert organ builders in 1993.
Six bells occupy the tower of St. Gangolf, cast between 1764 and 1964, including the Maria bell weighing 3,600 kilograms.
