Marienkirche, Lutheran church in Königsberg, Germany

The three-nave Marienkirche stands at the marketplace, measuring 41.5 meters in length and 22 meters in width with a copper-covered spire and four corner towers.

Construction started in 1397 on earlier fortification foundations, leading to consecration in 1432 by Würzburg auxiliary bishop Hermann under the name Sancta Maria.

The church interior contains a Renaissance lectern from 1697 and a Baroque pulpit supported by a figure of Moses, reflecting Lutheran religious traditions.

The Marienkirche sits at Marktplatz 8 in Königsberg, Bavaria, next to the town hall, serving as the central Lutheran parish church for the community.

The church vault reveals stonemason marks linking to the Strasbourg builders' lodge, while archaeological findings uncovered multiple skeletons during renovation work.
