Evangelische Stadtkirche St. Reinoldi in Dortmund

Zusatztext

The first sacred building on the site of todays St. Reinoldi Church in Dortmund was likely erected as early as the 9th century as a Carolingian mission center. Excavations after World War II uncovered the foundations of a 10th-century hall church. The present structure, rebuilt after the war, reflects the 1270 construction in the transitional style from Romanesque to Gothic, with late Gothic additions. Most of the 14th- and 15th-century artworks inside survived the air raids and can still be admired by visitors today. - Historic Landmark: Oldest city church of Dortmund, dating back to the 9th century. Architectural Splendor: RomanesqueGothic blend with late Gothic additions. Art Treasures: 14th and 15thcentury masterpieces that survived air raids.
