• St Michaelis Kirche

    23 août, Allemagne ⋅ ☀️ 57 °F

    The original Saint Michael was built in the mid 950s in a different location. The first church in the current location was begun in 1376. It's the largest (I think, maybe not) brick Gothic church in Germany. It went through alterations as all these churches do over time, and most of the Medieval treasures were dispersed.

    Like most of northern Germany, Saint Michael went Lutheran, and is a Protestant church to this day. It's big. Impressive. Very weighty. Pictures include the war memorial, the innerworkings of the old clock, and the basement chapel.
