The Protestant town church is located in the old town of Bad Hersfeld. Its striking church tower is the town's landmark.

The town church is a Gothic three-aisled, high-vaulted hall church. The hall has four bays with wide, eight-sided pillars. The two-bay choir ends with a polygonal apse with a 5/8 end.

The history of the town church begins with the construction of the Romanesque market basilica around the year 1060. This building was then converted and expanded over the next 420 years into the Gothic church building that still stands today. The exterior has remained almost unchanged since then. The interior was significantly changed by Calvinist iconoclasts and by at least two major fires.

The Evangelical City Church is one of the most striking buildings in the city and a symbol of Bad Hersfeld. Large parts of the church building in the form of a Gothic hall church were built in the 14th century.

This Gothic three-nave hall church features four bays with widely spaced octagonal pillars and a two-bay choir ending in a polygonal apse. The church's history spans over 900 years, beginning with a Romanesque market basilica built around 1060, which was gradually transformed into the current Gothic structure over the following 420 years.
