St. Petrikirche, Romanesque church in Wörlitz, Germany
The St. Petrikirche features a 66-meter tower, Gothic arches, side aisles, and medieval foundations that extend up to the window level.
In 1160, Margrave Albert the Bear ordered the construction of a stone church, which was consecrated on Christmas Day 1201 by Bishop Norbert of Brandenburg.
Martin Luther preached in this church in 1532, marking the early Protestant influence in the Anhalt region under Prince Wolfgang's leadership.
The church opens daily except Mondays from 11:00 to 17:00, with Sunday hours from 12:00 to 17:00, between Palm Sunday and mid-October.
The organ, installed in 1895 from Rühlmann & Son workshop, contains 1,000 pipes including both labial and reed pipes typical of French churches.
