Located in the main square of Heidelberg, it is a huge structure; it was first menioned as far back as 1239, although the foundation for the current structure was not laid until 1398 (please see wikipedia for more detailed info on this fascinating church:

Places to see in ( Heidelberg - Germany ) Church of the Holy Ghost
One of the few buildings in Heidelberg to survive the many wars during the past centuries, the Church of the Holy Ghost stands reverently in the Marktplatz. And even though the foundation was laid in 1398, it took until 1544 to finish the tower. The church has been home to Catholics and Protestants alike throughout the centuries. In 1706 a divider separating the two denominations was put in when both wanted to have services there, and it remained until the 1930’s. The church also has remains of the tombs and epitaphs of the Palatinate electors as well as a collection of manuscripts.
A late Roman basilica was first mentioned in 1239. In 1398, it was replaced by a large church building which nave was constructed in the typical style of the late Gothic period. The chancel was completed by 1410, the building of the nave took until 1441. There was also a delay in the construction of the church tower which was started again in 1508. The chancel contained the tombs of the Prince Electors of the Palatinate. Most of the commemorial tablets were destroyed in 1693. Of the originally 54 epitaphs, the only one to remain was the one of Prince Elector Ruprecht II (1352 - 1410).
During the 30 Year´s War, however, the complete collection became the booty of Heidelberg´s conqueror, Commander Tilly. Following orders of the Catholic Prince Elector Maximilian of Bavaria, the library was given to the Pope of Rome. Of the collection which once included more than 5,000 books and 3,524 manuscripts, only 885 manuscripts were returned to Heidelberg in 1816. During the following centuries, the church frequently changed its religious denomination and was used at different times by Catholics as well as Protestants. Even a partition barrier was erected in 1706 because both denominations wanted to hold service here. For 230 years, the barrier stayed in its place until it was removed in 1936. Today, the Church of the Holy Spirit is a Protestant Church.

Old town of Heidelberg,
Germany and Church of the Holy Ghost (Heiliggeistkirche)
독일 프랑크푸르트에서 기차로 약 1시간
하이델베르크 기차역에서 내리면 관광 지원센터가 있다.
그곳에서 1일 시내권을 구매하면
교통 및 입장권이 무료이기 때문에 반나절 이상으로 관광할 경우 비용 대비 편리하다.
트램을 타고 다운타운 입구에서 내려 구시가지를 걷다보면 오래된 도시의 정취를 느낄 수 있다.
구시가 중앙에서 1563년 하이델베르크 요리문답이 작성된 성령교회를 볼 수 있다.
하이델베르크 요리문답은
총 129개의 신앙에 대한 기본적인 질문과 답변으로 구성되었으며,
종교개혁자 칼빈의 신학사상에 기초하고 있다.
신학 보다는 신앙적 차원에서 접근하였기 때문에
지금까지 개혁주의 교회에서 가장 사랑받는 교리 문답이라 할 수 있다.
현재 성령교회는 독일국교인 루터교회이다.
유럽의 교회가 단순히 관광지로 전락한 것에 비해
이 교회(건물)는 나름 교회(본질)로서의 기능을 유지하고 있는 듯 보였다.
교회를 나와 비좁은 골목길을 걷다보면
네카어 강을 거너 철학자의 길에 오를 수 있는 칼 테오도르 다리에 이른다.
당시 선제후였던 칼 테오도르의 명령으로 세워진 이 다리 위에는
테오도르 선제후와 아테나 여신의 동상이 세워져 있다.
하이델베르크의 산책길로 알려진 '철학자의 길(Philosophenweg)'은
실제로 괴테, 헤겔, 하이데거, 야스퍼스 등
당대의 유명한 철학자들이 거닐며 사색에 잠겼던 곳으로 유명하다.
하이델베르크 시민들이
'노파의 다리(알테 부뤼케, Alte Brücke)'라고도 불리는
칼 테오도르 다리 위에서 강을 지나는 배와
저 멀리 산 기슭의 철학자의 길을 거니는 사람들,
반대편으로 눈 덮인 산을 두르고 있는 하이델베르크 고성을 바라보았다.

I found the Lego Doll of Martin Luther in side of this Catholic Church and it was cute :D In the church also I found books about Judaism and of course, Catholic. It seems that the church is ecumenical in order to seek the unity over difference sticking to its own belief.

Johannes Kircher at Heiliggeistkirche Heidelberg Germany 9/30/2007
We missed the concert on 9/30/2007, but returned afterwards to witness Johannes Kircher just messing around. Perhaps no one on the planet today can do what he can do. Movie isn't the greatest as I took it on my Sony pocket sized digital. Wait until the very end to catch the reverbs in the cathedral.
