    This granite church was built in 1144 on the highest point of the city of Varel. It was built in honor of St. Peter, whose name she was to bear. But in 1650 the church became part of the large palace complex. Since then the church is called "Schlosskirche". The count's family also had a tomb here. In 1870 a major fire destroyed the castle and the church remained. It is under monument protection and is one of the most impressive buildings of Lower Saxony. The interior with its high altar, as well as the dome with the painting are beautiful to look at. An eye-catcher is also the beautiful organ with the painting of the gallery, which one often finds here. You should definitely visit this church when you are there.New apostolic church

    The church tower is a bit short, but on the flat land it is still seen
