Maria-Magdalenen-Kirche

Maria-Magdalenen-Kirche is a church with baroque architecture in Naumburg, built with large arched windows and pilasters. A tower with a square base defines the external appearance of the building.

The building took its current form between 1712 and 1730 as a cemetery church, following an earlier chapel on the site. Its creation during this period reflects the baroque building tradition that was practiced in the region.

The interior features Italian stucco work and religious frescoes that shape the character of the space. These artistic elements create a dignified setting for visitors interested in understanding local artistic traditions.

The church is accessible during the week and on weekends, and visitors can explore the architectural details and interior furnishings at their own pace. Guided tours can be arranged through Stadtkirche St. Wenzel and offer deeper insights into the history.

Inside stands an organ built by Friedrich Ladegast in the 19th century, based on an earlier instrument from the 18th century. This organ exemplifies the region's organ-building craft tradition and attracts music enthusiasts.
