St. Georg, Mansfeld, Protestant church in Mansfeld, Germany.
Description
St. Georg is a Protestant church in Mansfeld featuring late Gothic architecture with a prominent west tower, a longhouse extending northward, and a chancel with a three-sided closure. The building brings together elements from different construction periods into a unified whole.
History
The tower base dates from a 13th century structure, while the nave and chancel were rebuilt between 1518 and 1520 following a fire in 1498. This reconstruction period fundamentally shaped the appearance of the building.
Culture
The interior displays three medieval altars and a series of 49 paintings from 1616 showing scenes from the New Testament. These artworks still shape the visual character of the space today.
Practical
The church welcomes visitors interested in exploring its architecture and artworks. It is advisable to check opening times in advance, as regular services take place throughout the week.

Martin Luther sang in this church's choir as a child and returned years later to deliver two sermons on October 4, 1545. These visits connect the building directly to one of Reformation history's most influential figures.
