    St. Jakobi is the second oldest church founded in Goslar after the collegiate church of St. Simon and Judas. While the collegiate church was a symbol of imperial power, the Jakobi Church was built on the initiative of Bishop Hezilos of Hildesheim (r. 1054–1079) to show episcopal presence on the eastern edge of the diocese near the imperial palace. A document from Hezilos proves the existence of the church for the year 1073. At the same time, St. Jakobi was probably also a civic church from the beginning. The patronage of St. James suggests that wealthy pilgrims to St. James were the founders.
