Guided Story
You're standing in front of the oldest surviving church in the Großauheim district of Hanau. This Roman Catholic filial church, known as St. Jakobus, is part of the parish of St. Klara and Franziskus in the Diocese of Fulda. Look at the facade, quietly and solemnly narrating its long history as a cultural monument. Its walls have witnessed generations and stand as a testament to the Catholic tradition in this region. Turn around, and you'll see the Mädchenrealschule St. Josef just 62 meters to the south. This church is not only a place of faith but also a piece of living history nestled in the heart of Großauheim.
