Marienkirche, Gothic church in Salzwedel, Germany.
The Marienkirche stands as a five-nave basilica with stepped gables on the side aisles, displaying characteristic black ribs against white interior walls.
Originally built around 1150 as a Romanesque fieldstone church, the structure underwent extensive reconstruction into a brick basilica over a 200-year period from the 14th century.
The church features an eight-meter-high wooden carved altar from 1510, representing the largest of its kind in the Altmark region of Germany.
The church opens Tuesday through Friday from 10:30 AM to 12 PM and 2 PM to 3:30 PM, with similar afternoon hours on weekends and holidays.
The building incorporates a former tower stump measuring 2.70 meters in height from the original Romanesque structure within its current architecture.
