Facts and practical information

The Provost Church of St. Peter and Andrew is a Roman Catholic church in Brilon, Sauerland, and belongs to the Archdiocese of Paderborn. The main church of the parish in Brilon, which was elevated to a provostry in 1925, is dedicated to the apostles Simon Peter and Andrew. Construction began shortly after the founding of Brilon between 1220 and 1250. The late Romanesque hall church with three bays has a transept and a two-bay, straight choir, both built in the 14th century. The mighty early Gothic west tower was erected after the completion of the nave. Due to the slightly elevated position of the church, it is visible from afar. Seen from the market square, the church and the historic town hall in front of it form an ensemble that is considered a landmark of Brilon.
