Parochialkirche

The church is now used and owned by the congregation of St. Mary's and St. Peter's, the merger of the parishes in the historical city center concluded on 23 September 2005.

As a Reformed church building Parochialkirche is not dedicated or even consecrated to any patron saint.

The church was erected in Klosterstraße at the corner with Freier Fahrweg (renamed Parochialstraße in 1862[1]), because the sites along Klosterstraße then formed a prince-electoral immunity district (kurfürstliche Freiheit), not under the legislation of the Lutheran city council, in order to circumvent the council's objection against its construction.

Fritz Kühn made a cross from scrap iron found in the ruins, which was hung in the sanctuary in 1961.
