Deutschordenskirche St. Maria, Frankfurt am Main

In 1309, the Archbishop of Mainz commissioned a Gothic church, which was to be a hospital for the German Holy Order. During the 18th Century, the place of worship received an impressive baroque altar as well as a baroque façade, in order to match the new convent building which had been built in the meanwhile. In 1881, the church received a new interior, along with a neo-baroque main altar. The late-Gothic side-altars are particularly remarkable and worth seeing, as is the Gothic sculpture of The Beheading of John the Baptist.
