The Marienkirche is the landmark of Gelnhausen. The church was first mentioned in writing in 1223. The architectural style of the church combines late Romanesque and early Gothic, also known as the Rhenish transitional style. Be sure to check out the inside of the church as well. The rood screen is special: it separates the central nave and the choir spatially, but not acoustically.

Gelnhausen Old Town

Highlight • Historical Site

In the entire old town one finds affectionately restored half-timbered buildings beside certificates of medieval architecture. Many small shops and restaurants "sweeten" the sightseeing of the city.

In addition, the Protestant St. Mary's Church, the Catholic Church of St. Peter, the former synagogue, the interior wooden gate and the Romanesque House are among the most notable buildings in the city.

In the tourist information you get a free brochure with a map of the historic Gelnhausen. This facilitates the visit through the 840 years of city history and lists all sorts of useful information.
