Wewer: Interior view of St. John Baptist at Christmas time

The Catholic parish church of St. Johannes Baptist is a listed church building in Wewer , a district of Paderborn in the Paderborn district ( North Rhine-Westphalia ).

The church was rebuilt in 1885. At the same time, the simple Romanesque tower was raised. The furnishings include a carved figure of St. John the Baptist from the beginning of the 16th century and a Vespers image from the beginning of the 18th century. A goblet with enamelled rotuln and a powerful nodus is remarkable. In 2001 a Rieger organ was installed.
