Marienwerkhaus, Historical church workhouse in Lübeck's Old City, Germany
The neo-Gothic Marienwerkhaus stands adjacent to St. Mary's Church, featuring characteristic architectural elements of early 20th-century German ecclesiastical structures.
The original Gothic building served as a workshop for church artisans until 1903, when architect Willy Glogner replaced it with the current structure.
From 1641 onwards, Marienwerkhaus functioned as the residence for St. Mary's Church organists, including the notable musician Dieterich Buxtehude from 1668 to 1707.
Located at Schüsselbuden 13 in Lübeck, the Marienwerkhaus interior remains closed to regular visitors but can be accessed through scheduled appointments.
The building survived the 1942 bombing raids, making it one of the few remaining historical structures along Schüsselbuden street that maintains its original character.
