description: "Directly on Münsterplatz, St. Foillan exudes a quiet presence next to the mighty Aachen Cathedral. The church is considered the first parish church of the citizens of Aachen and thus tells a piece of city history that extends far beyond its walls. Its neo-Gothic spire still dominates the silhouette of the city centre today and points the way from the cathedral square into the alleys. Inside, sacred simplicity meets artistic details that tell of centuries of religious life. Many visitors come here to find a moment of peace, as St. Foillan has long served as an open church for people who want to pause for a moment."

St. Foillan: Church at the transition between the cathedral district and city life

 Directly on Münsterplatz, St. Foillan exudes a quiet presence next to the mighty Aachen Cathedral. The church is considered the first parish church of the citizens of Aachen and thus tells a piece of city history that extends far beyond its walls. Its neo-Gothic spire still dominates the silhouette of the city centre today and points the way from the cathedral square into the alleys. Inside, sacred simplicity meets artistic details that tell of centuries of religious life. Many visitors come here to find a moment of peace, as St. Foillan has long served as an open church for people who want to pause for a moment.
