St. Marien, Gothic church in Plau am See, Germany.

St. Marien stands as a three-nave and three-bay hall church constructed from red bricks, featuring a massive tower visible across the town landscape.

The church foundations date back to the 1220s, with three bronze bells installed in different periods: 1522, 1700, and the most recent addition in 1963.

From June through September, the parish church becomes the center of musical activities during the Plau Music Summer, drawing performers and audiences.

Visitors can climb 120 steps to reach the 40-meter-high belfry, which remains open daily between April and October for panoramic views.

The church bells span over 400 years of craftsmanship, with each bell representing different periods of German bronze casting techniques.
