St. Peter's Church Rostock

The Petrikirche is the oldest and at 117.0 m the highest of the former four city churches of the Hanseatic city of Rostock.Petrikirche with remains of the city wall

Rostock's other churches are or were the Marienkirche, the Nikolaikirche and the Jakobikirche, which was destroyed in World War II and finally demolished in 1960. Like the other churches, the Petrikirche belongs to the Evangelical-Lutheran inner-city parish of Rostock in the parish of Rostock in the Mecklenburg church district of the Evangelical-Lutheran Church in northern Germany. The Reformation started in Rostock's Petrikirche when in 1523 Duke Heinrich V commissioned the local chaplain Joachim Slüter to preach the evangelical sermon.[1] During an air raid in 1942, the church and its interior burned out and lost its characteristic spire.Source: de.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Petrikirche_(Rostock)p.s. Komoot does not accept the last bracket in the link, it has to be inserted manually.

Not only suitable as a photo motif, the Petrikirche also offers a good view over Rostock and above all the city harbor. There is supposed to be an elevator to get to the viewing platform, but I think everyone who is out and about here is a jock who of course goes up on foot👍

I believe this building has been rededicated and people now live in the church.
