St. Urbanus Church
Church
in Arnsberg-Vosswinkel
The church of St. Urbanus was built between 1750 and 1765 and has an impressive baroque interior. Some of the pieces probably come from the Premonstratensian monastery of Scheda, which was dissolved during secularization.

Properties:
With its historic façade, St. Urbanus Church rises like a shining star in wintry Arnsberg. This baroque beauty with its elegant lines invites you to experience the splendor of the past. First mentioned in 1187, the church has an eventful history dating back to the earliest chapters of the region. After being destroyed by fire, it was rebuilt between 1750 and 1756 and became a jewel of Baroque architecture. The three impressive rococo altars shine particularly brightly in the winter sun. One of them, which serves as a side altar and pulpit, is a rarity.
The sound of the majestic organ, the first work of the famous organ builder Stockmann, echoes through the interior of the church and combines musical tradition with acoustic brilliance. This acoustic splendor is harmoniously complemented by the modern painting of the interior by artist Tobias Kammerer. This symbiosis of history and modernity attracts both art lovers and spiritual seekers.
The church unfolds its very special charm in the winter silence. A visit at this time of year not only offers a refuge from the cold, but also the opportunity to immerse yourself in the warm atmosphere of this venerable building and discover its historical secrets. A visit to St. Urbanus Church is more than just a journey through the past - it is an invitation to experience the quiet splendor of winter in NRW.
