Neustädter Hof- und Stadtkirche St. Johannis

The Neustädter Hof- und Stadtkirche St. Johannis features pure baroque architecture with a design focused on creating space around the central preaching area.

Built between 1666 and 1670 under architect Girolamo Sartorio's guidance, this church stands as one of the earliest Protestant aisleless churches in Lower Saxony.

The church maintains the St. John's chorale tradition through regular performances of Bach compositions and hosts numerous musical events throughout the year.

Visitors can access guided tours that explore the church's architecture and learn about Gottfried Wilhelm Leibniz, whose grave resides within the building.

The church contains a Spanish organ installed between 1998 and 2001, incorporating authentic Spanish Baroque construction principles in its design.
