During the 13th century the city walls were built, the church became a part of the Old Town and the south wall of the church backed onto the Old Town Wall, thus naming the church St. Martin in the Wall. In the 14th and 15th centuries the church was reconstructed as a Gothic church as it has remained as such until today.
