October offers the chance to visit the nave of St. Marien in its current state before it closes its doors for some time due to the upcoming renovation and gradually changes its appearance. Special opportunities to experience the church one last time: On 30 October, we will be opening the church in the evening from 8 pm to 10 pm, and on 1 November, the final service will take place in the nave at 12 noon. The church will then be closed from 2 November onwards. However, the towers and vaults, as well as a small information centre in the main entrance, will still be open to visitors
NEWS FROM ST MARIEN
For 800 years, St Marien has been a place of worship for the citizens of Lübeck, where they celebrate church services and other city events. It is here that people find hope and form their identity.
The church is open 365 days a year: for you and all those seeking God. Lübeck's council, merchant and citizens' church is a place for worship and prayer, art and culture, discussion and conversation, volunteering and commitment. For Lübeck, its people and for the glory of God.
INTO THE FUTURE
Following the reconstruction of the church 80 years ago, a major renovation is now underway. The windows, paintings, masonry and temperature control are just some of the extensive tasks involved. You can find all the information about this major project on our blog.
