Description
St. Elisabeth's Church in Marburg.
One of the earliest purely gothic churches in Germany, and is held to be a model for the architecture of Cologne Cathedral. It also served as an inspiration for St. Paul's Church of Strasbourg.
It was built from sandstone by the Order of the Teutonic Knights in honour of Elisabeth of Hungary (in Germany known as Elisabeth of Thuringia). Construction started in 1235, the year Elisabeth was canonized. The church was consecrated in 1283. However, the towers were not finished until 1340.
