St. Peter's Church

St. Peter's Church rises 108 meters with a single tower and features a five-aisled hall structure built entirely from red bricks in Gothic style.

The church's initial construction began in 1227 as a three-nave Romanesque building, later expanding to five naves during the 15th-century Gothic modifications.

The interior space now serves as a contemporary venue for art exhibitions, musical performances, and religious ceremonies within its white-washed walls.

The observation tower provides views over Lübeck and the Baltic Sea, with entry fees of 5 euros for adults and reduced rates for students.

After complete destruction in 1942, the church underwent reconstruction until 1987, receiving a new Hinrich Otto Paschen organ with 19 registers in 1992.
