Florinskirche Koblenz

This church was built at the beginning of the 12th century as the church of the former St. Florin monastery. The most famous personality of this monastery was Nikolaus von Kues (1401 - 1464). In the Napoleonic era, the church was left to the city. Fortunately, it was not used as a slaughterhouse, as the Rhineland was awarded to Prussia at the Congress of Vienna. Then the church was in 1818 by King Friedrich-Wilhelm III. transferred to the Protestant military and civil parish. Located in the middle of the old town of Koblenz, the Florinskirche is today not only the festival and holiday church of the Evangelical parish of Koblenz-Mitte, but also a tourist attraction.

One of the many worth seeing churches in Koblenz.

The Florinskirche is a Protestant church in the old town of Koblenz.
The church building, erected around 1100 and dominating the city skyline, belonged to the Canons' Monastery of St. Florin, which was secularized in 1802.
Then in 1820 it was the first evangelically consecrated church building from Koblenz to the Evangelical Church in the Rhineland.
The early medieval church building is a prime example of Romanesque sacred architecture on the Middle Rhine.(Source: Wikipedia)
