St John's Church, Wissembourg, Protestant church in Wissembourg, France

Founded during the Carolingian era by the Abbey of Saint-Pierre, the church underwent a transformation from Catholic to Protestant worship in 1535.

The church contains a Thomas organ installed in 2015, comprising 38 registers across three manuals that reflect North German Baroque musical traditions.

Between 1684 and 1803, the church functioned simultaneously for both Catholic and Protestant congregations before returning exclusively to Protestant use.
