    The first church in Sorau was built in 1207, and a stone tower was built around 1280. In 1308 the chancel was enlarged, the walls were raised by 6 m and finished with a Gothic ribbed vault, and the Marienkapelle and the sacristy were added on the north side. From 1401 to 1430 the three-aisled, Gothic hall church (brick Gothic) was built. By the end of the 15th century, a baptistery was added to the north, the Barbara chapel (1445) to the south and the western vestibule in the entrance area. The church then had 20 altars and the vaults were painted in polychrome. In 1496, Martin Hänsel built an organ with 23 registers in the St. Mary's Church in Sorau. This was the first large organ in Lower Lusatia.
    After the Reformation (1524) the parish church became Protestant and remained so until 1945. Source: Wikipedia
