The Marienkirche is counted as the main work of the north German brick Gothic. In addition to the Nikolaikirche, the St. Marienkirche has the richest furnishings of a church in the Baltic Sea region. These include the main altar, the sermon pulpit, the organ, a bronze baptismal font and an astronomical clock.
The exterior of the church is characterized by the large transept and the mighty west building with a massive tower, the otherwise compact structure.

The Marienkirche is Rostock's Evangelical Lutheran main church and a major work of North German brick Gothic. In 1232, an early Gothic predecessor church was mentioned for the first time; the construction of today's three-aisled basilica began around 1290 and was completed around the mid-15th century. The tower is now 86.32 meters high.

There are two organs in the church. The large organ, behind a baroque facade, houses 5700 pipes in 83 stops across four manuals and pedal.
