Brick Gothic in a narrow sense is applied for a kind of Gothic architecture widespread in the Northern Germany, Denmark, Poland and the Baltic states. It is also called Baltic Brick Gothic or North German Brick Gothic. But the distribution and the range of varieties of Gothic brick buildings are much wider.

Preface

Localizations

Northern belt:

A bit different from the countries around the Baltic Sea is the style of Gothic brick buildings in the very northwest of Germany, the Netherlands and Flanders, including the Belgian and the French part of that landscape. Nevertheless, there is a continuous belt from the Strait of Dover to Lake Peipus. The latitude extent of this region increases eastward, spreading to the Finnish Lakeland and the foot of the Carpates in Poland), almost making the belt a triangle.

Four Southern regions:Far south of it, there are three more regions of Gothic brick architecture.

The Bavarian style is very different from the northern German styles. The French and Italian styles are much more different from the German and Dutch ones, and as well different from each other.

Borderline styles

In all these regions, the distinction of Gothic from the preceding Brick Romanesque and succeeding Brick Renaissance is not always sharp. Often, Romanesque buildings were altered or added to in the Gothic style, others were begun while the Romanesque style prevailed, but completed in a Gothic fashion due to the slow building process. Such buildings can be classed equally with both styles.

Cultural and political contexts

The distribution of northeastern Brick Gothic is similar but not identical with the sphere of influence of the Hanseatic League, with a preponderance in the younger cities east of the Elbe. Besides urban representative buildings, cathedrals and churches, monasteries of the Mendicant Orders and other communities, especially the Cistercians and the Premonstratensians, played an important role. In Prussia, Lavia and Estonia, the Teutonic Knights erected brick Ordensburgen. But also their opponents, Poland and Lithuania took over that style.

This list will never be complete. It does not attempt to list all of the thousands of Brick Gothic buildings that exist or once existed. Instead, it aims to list significant structures, buildings that are considered especially important for stylistic, functional, or other reasons. The main criterion is a building's being listed in art historical survey works on Brick Gothic[1] and/or that its outstanding role has been referred to in individual scientific publications.

The dates given here refer to the present extant Gothic structures. Predecessors or post-Gothic alterations are not normally mentioned, but can be assessed by following up the literature. The most influential structures are indicated by bold print. Romanesque and Renaissance structures are not listed. Similarly, Gothic Brick structures from outside the Baltic or North German regions, e.g. the Danubian ones, are included, as the traditional terminology was quite ideological. Neogothic edifices are also not listed.

Belgium

Most of the Gothic brick architecture in Belgium can be found in West Flanders, the rest in a narrow strip along the border with the Netherlands. Many Gothic brick churches in the Province of Limburg have been lost in the nineteenth century, as they were displaced by Gothic Revival churches.

England

In England, the use of bricks for pretentious buildings began later than in continental Europe. And the collective of Gothic brick buildings differs, almost no religious buildings and very few urban ones.

North Rhine-Westphalia

In North Rhine-Westphalia, Brick Gothic is concentrated west of the Rhine north of Cologne (Köln) and in western Münsterland. The regional style, including the colour of the bricks (very dark or very pale, but almost never red), is very similar to neighbouring regions of the Netherlands – where most historical churches have been displaced by Gothic Revival buildings.
