St. Vincenz Menden

St. Vincenz church features high stone walls, twin spires, and Gothic architectural elements that define the Menden city center skyline.

The church, established in 1345, stands as a testament to medieval religious architecture and served as a central point during territorial conflicts in the Cologne region.

The religious structure hosts the traditional Good Friday procession, which extends 2.5 kilometers through Menden and includes fourteen ceremonial stations.

Visitors can access the church through the main entrance near the old city hall, with guided tours available during regular opening hours.

The building maintains its status as an architectural heritage monument in North Rhine-Westphalia, representing centuries of local craftsmanship and design.
