St. Ägidien Kirche

The St. Ägidien Church features Gothic architecture with a cross-vaulted altar room, a sacristy, and a timber-framed tower covered in slate from 1729.

Following destruction during the Thirty Years War in 1626, when only the choir and sacristy remained, the church received a new nave with barrel vaulting in 1684.

The church transformed from a religious building into a community space, housing Café Aegidius from 2010 to 2018, combining spiritual and social functions.

Located at Aegidiiplatz in Hann. Münden's old town, the building maintains both its architectural heritage status and functions as a modern meeting place.

Archaeological excavations in 1964 revealed remains of the original 6x9 meter Romanesque chapel beneath the current church structure.
