St. Martinus, Parish church in Düren-Birgel, Germany.

St. Martinus exhibits the Romanesque Revival style with rounded arches, barrel vaults, and a tower that marks the architectural landscape of North Rhine-Westphalia.

The church construction, completed between 1902 and 1903 under architect Franz Statz, replaced a former castle chapel that became insufficient for the growing congregation.

The dedication to Saint Martin of Tours reflects the religious traditions of the region, with regular services contributing to community gatherings in Düren-Birgel.

Located at coordinates 50.7717, 6.445828, the church maintains regular mass schedules and welcomes visitors interested in exploring its architectural features.

During World War II, the church's tower sustained substantial damage, leading to the complete removal of its uppermost section in the post-war reconstruction period.

Architectural style: Romanesque Revival architecture
