    Saint Sylvestri Church

    15 de agosto, Alemanha ⋅ ⛅ 82 °F

    Today, an Evangelical (Lutheran/Reformed) church, but originally Saint Sylvestri was founded by the early Benedictine missionaries. The original church was enlarged into the current Romanesque structure in the 1100s. Gothic elements were added later, but in the 1800s, it was returned closer to it's original state.

    Some things of interest: an early Fourteenth Century crucifix, a very nice Gothic altar from Brussels (1480), textiles from the 1500s, a Baroque organ, and a sacristy cabinet from the Thirteenth Century. Oh, and a wood carving of Martin Luther. Can't forget that.

    Nice church, very Protestant, in that it's quite plain. As we saw on our last trip to Germany, these Protestant churches in the eastern part of the country are nothing like the ones in Nürnberg.

    And I missed the war memorial, which was outside the church in the back, apparently. A little salty about that, as I like to see them.
