    The parish church of St. Blasii is a Protestant church in the district town of Nordhausen in Thuringia. Along with the cathedral and the abandoned market church of St. Nikolai, it is one of the three church buildings located in the historic city center of Nordhausen.

      The Blasii Church is the largest Protestant church in the city and was first mentioned in a document in 1234. The city's main Protestant church shapes the cityscape with its leaning octagonal towers. Their different heights arose because lightning struck the left tower and the tower was not rebuilt to its full height, but only a hood was put on. The church was built between 1487 and 1490 as a late Gothic hall church. The narrative windows in the choir, which were designed by Martin Domke in 1945, are particularly worth seeing. The Christmas window shows the Annunciation and birth of Christ, the Passion window shows the story of Christ's suffering and the resurrection.
      His resurrection window. The Renaissance pulpit and the baptismal font from the 16th century are also interesting. The epitaph by Lucas Cranach in the choir is a copy; the original was destroyed.
