St. Mary's Church in Mühlhausen, central Germany, is the second-largest church building in Thuringia, constructed mainly during the 14th century in the Gothic style. Its most distinctive feature is the 86.7-metre-high central spire, built between 1898 and 1903, which is the highest in the state and dominates the town's skyline. The church holds historical significance as a site of activity during the German Peasants' War around 1525, when revolutionary leader Thomas Müntzer served as pastor there. The interior houses the Sauer organ, built in 1891 and regarded as the largest surviving 19th-century organ in Thuringia.
