St. Marien

St. Marien is a Catholic church in Staßfurt with a 60-meter tower in neogothic style, adorned with finely carved stone facades. Inside sits a Wilhelm Rühlmann organ from 1895 that remains in regular use during services.

Construction began in 1886 as the Catholic population grew during Staßfurt's industrial expansion in the 19th century. The building has remained a landmark ever since, with updates including new bells installed in 1922.

The local community gathers here regularly for worship and celebrations that shape parish life. The interior comes alive during services, particularly when the restored organ fills the space with sound during religious observances.

The church hosts regular services and welcomes visitors throughout the week. Those interested in viewing the interior or climbing the tower should contact the parish in advance to ensure access.

The organ underwent full restoration and was returned to service in 2020, becoming a draw for regional concerts and events. Many visitors are surprised by how the sound resonates powerfully through the neogothic space.
