The church in Fränninge was built at the end of the 12th century. Originally, it had a wide tower and a narrower apse.

Franziskanerkirche

Franziskanerkirche

Rothenburg ob der Tauber, DE

The Franciscan Church belonged to the former Franciscan Monastery and is now an Evangelical Lutheran parish church. The monastery was founded in 1281 but ceased to exist in 1548 as a result of the Reformation. The monastery buildings, which had been voluntarily abandoned, first housed a Latin school and then a flat for the widows of the parish priests. After 1805, the buildings were used, among other things, as a salt warehouse. Parts of the complex (cloister, refectory, etc.) were demolished, and much of the inventory was destroyed or sold.

Frascati Cathedral

Frascati Cathedral

Frascati, IT

The Cathedral of Frascati was built from 1599 on the plans of the architect Ottaviano Mascherino (1536-1606) to cope with the increase in the city's population, which had become too large for the parish church of Santa Maria in Vivario. The construction was financed by an initial contribution from the Holy See, donations from the parishioners and, from 1608, by taxes on the famous local wine. The completion of the first works dates back to 1610. The present Baroque façade dates from 1696-1700 and is the work of Girolamo Fontana. The choir was rebuilt in 1703 and the side campaniles with clocks were added in 1747.

Frauenfrieden Church, Frankfurt/Main

Frauenfrieden Church, Frankfurt/Main

Frankfurt/Main, DE

The 1929 consecrated church Frauenfrieden in Frankfurt/Main was financed by women for the purpose of remembering the victims of the Great War and as a prayer for peace. In 1916, the Catholic women's rights activist, politician and chairperson of the Catholic German Women's Association Hedwig Dransfeld (1871-1925) formulated the idea of having a church commemorating the fallen of the war financed exclusively by women. The church was planned by architect Hans Herkommer. In 2020 the church was restored and the liturgical interior redesigned by the artist Tobias Kammerer.

The church is part of the Karlskrona World Heritage Site.
