Description
Across the Main River from Frankfurt, the views are stunning at night with the church, Dreikönigskirche (English: Church of the Three Kings), magnificently lit. It is a Protestant church and parish in Frankfurt, located on the south bank of the Main river in Sachsenhausen district, where our daughter lives with her family. I love this view from the old historic district of Frankfurt am Main. The church seems to glow with the river reflections pointing toward the church.
At the location of the present church, a Gothic hospital chapel was consecrated to the Three Kings in 1340. The present building was designed by Franz Joseph von Denzinger [de] in Gothic revival style, and built from 1875 to 1881. It has five bays, with a vaulted main nave, extended in the middle by side naves with impressive stone galleries.[2]
The church was not damaged during World War II.[3] In 1956, stained glass windows by Charles Crodel were installed. A new organ was built by Karl Schuke Berliner Orgelbauwerkstatt [de] from Berlin in 1961, following a disposition by Helmut Walcha.
