St. Martin, Euskirchen, Gothic parish church in Euskirchen, Germany
The church features an intentionally tilted tower spire, network vaults in the central nave, and a baptismal chapel added in 1939.
The first wooden and stone church was built around 700 on a Frankish cemetery, later replaced by a three-bay pier basilica in the late 12th century.
The carved altar, originating from Flanders or Antwerp around 1510, represents the first documented work of the Master of Overbeck.
Eight historically notable bells hang in the tower, including two new ones cast in 2005, with the large bell being a reconstruction.
The church treasury contains the oldest Gothic chalice in the Rhineland, displayed in the former baptismal chapel since 2013.
