Martinskirche, Protestant parish church in Kassel, Germany.

The Martinskirche features a three-aisle, six-bayed hall design with two distinct towers positioned at its western end, following Gothic architectural principles.

Construction of the Martinskirche began in 1364 and finished in 1462, later becoming a Protestant church in 1524 under Philip I, Landgrave of Hesse.

The church serves as the preaching location for the bishop of the Evangelical Church of Hesse Electorate-Waldeck and maintains regular religious services.

Visitors can explore the Gothic choir with its distinctive 5/8-Schluss design and examine the modern altar installations created by designer Madeleine Dietz.

The church houses an impressive organ installed in 1964, containing 57 registers and more than 5000 pipes for musical performances.
