St. Mary's Church

Description

The Gothic spires of St. Mary's Church reach upwards and towards the heavens, towering impressively in the background of the town hall. First mentioned in archival records dating to 1283, the church was later rebuilt as a three-aisled hall church, and is today considered to have one of the most impressive Brick Gothic interiors thanks to its vaults. Amongst the most impressive features in the church is a choir screen dating to the second half of the 15th century– behind the screen is an ornate, Late gothic goldleaf wood carved altar with two doors. The church also boasts a unique astronomic clock that's still in operation today.
