Stiftskirche, Gothic church in Kaiserslautern, Germany.
The Stiftskirche features three prominent towers, including an octagonal main tower and two western towers, with sandstone block construction facing east.
The church originated from a Premonstratensian monastery established in 1176 by Emperor Frederick I Barbarossa, with construction of the current building beginning around 1250.
The church contains a marble monument commemorating the 1818 union between Lutheran and Reformed congregations in the Palatinate region.
The church bells ring every quarter hour and hold a special weekly concert every Saturday at 6:00 PM with six bells cast in 1957.
The Stiftskirche stands as the oldest hall church between the Rhine and Saar rivers, with an organ containing 64 registers across four manuals and pedals.
