St. Johann Baptist Church (Brechte)
The Protestant St. Johann Baptist Church forms the center of the Brechte village in the Dortmund district of Eving . Around 1250 the church was built as a three-aisled, two-bay hall on an almost square floor plan with a rectangular choir. The west tower is probably of an older date. The sacristy was built around 1500 . During the restoration of the interior in 1960/1962, extensive paintings from the time the church was built were exposed and restored. The font dates from the 13th century, the pulpit and altar are from the 17th century.
The church is registered as an architectural monument in the list of monuments of the city of Dortmund .
