Lubeck Cathedral

Reviewed By Globetrotter045 - Haacht, Belgium

The cathedral has a very peaceful setting in a green area on the east side of the old town. I found it a beautiful church, the exterior as well as the interior. It is very old, built in the 12th century. The astronomical clock is very special. Sadly it was seriously bombed in WOII and a lot of artworks were destroyed. The restoration took a few decades. Free to visit

St. Petri zu Lubeck

Reviewed By essex-hiker-biker - Berlin, Germany

If you do one thing in Lübeck, take the lift to the viewing platform at the top of the tower of this former church. The views are simply amazing and you will get a really good feel for how the old town of Lübeck is laid out.

Sankt Jakobi Church

Reviewed By Vierdank - Stockholm, Sweden

A most interesting and beautiful church. In fact, one the most interesting churches in Lübeck, since it was fairly undamaged during WWII, which was not the case with some of the other churches in town - the cathedral for instance. Built in the beginning of the 14th century it was during medieval times the church of the seamen and fishermen. The interior is well preserved and the church houses two interesting organs; especially the smaller instrument in the north transept built by Friedrich Stellwagen in 1636. One of the best examples of the north-German organ style from the 17th century. And indeed in great preserved shape. St Jacobi is a must to see in Lübeck. Great cultural and historical value.
