From the bottom of our hearts: Thank you!

You have saved a world cultural heritage site!

Gifting the world with culture and heritage - for the future. The Lübecker Nachrichten and the Gemeinnützige Sparkassenstiftung zu Lübeck have made this possible. Every donation received for the preservation of the world-famous Lübeck city skyline with its 7 towers was doubled. Now, after just a few weeks, more than € 3,500,000 has been credited to St Mary's account.


And it can continue: The donation account is still open until the end of the year.
IBAN: DE91 2305 0101 0160 7850 02

Every contribution counts - and yours can make all the difference. We thank you for your support!

For you. New every month. To think about, to feel joyous, to feel moved.

What I love so much about St Marien?

At different times of the day and year, the light falling into the church will illuminate something that you have walked past hundreds of times and have never seen before.

Robert Pfeifer
Pastor at St Marien

What fascinates me so?

When I look into the highest brick vault in the world, I feel connected to God, who shows us a bright, friendly face and helps us to grow beyond ourselves.

Inga Meissner
Pastor at St Marien

Why do I like making music here?

Making music in St Marien means feeling and continuing the spirit of Buxtehude and Bach. Magnificent!

Johannes Unger
Organist at St Marien

What excites me so much about St Marien?

It's very hard not to be enthusiastic about working in St Marien. If this place doesn't make you smile and marvel, I don't know what else can.

Bernhard Drews
Sexton at St Marien

All dry as dust?

In St Marien, you are surrounded by living history. Not like in a museum where it is only on display, but right where history happened and is still happening today.
