Pfarrkirche St. Marien, Gothic church in Güstrow, Germany.

The Pfarrkirche St. Marien features three naves with straight eastern closure and three gabled roofs, constructed entirely from red bricks in Gothic style.

The church received its first official documentation in 1308 and underwent major reconstruction after a fire in 1503, reopening in 1508 with eighteen altars.

The centerpiece of the church interior is the 1522 altarpiece created by Brussels sculptor Jan Borman, with paintings by artist Bernaert van Orley.

Visitors can climb 196 steps to reach the 41-meter observation platform, making it the highest accessible point in Güstrow's cityscape.

The church houses a terracotta relief called 'Angel of Hope' by Ernst Barlach, installed in 1979 on the right pillar of the altar space.
