The predecessor of today's St. Martin's Church was a three-aisled Romanesque basilica with three apses, a double-tower façade and a choir tower. This basilica was located on the site of today's nave. The church, located on the south side of the market square, was built by the citizens of Amberg in the late Gothic style from 1421 onwards.
