    Tips

    Almost nothing reliable is known about the life of Saint George, to whom the evangelical church of Waren an der Müritz was dedicated, but the veneration of his person goes way back to early Christianity. A martyr identified with George is said to have lived in the third century.
    On the other hand, the legend of Saint George slaying the dragon is well known and widespread. He is usually depicted – in paintings or as a statue – as the conqueror of the monster, often as a knight on horseback.
    The memorial day of the very popular George - he is, among other things, the patron saint of the English kingdom - in the calendar of saints is on April 23rd.

      The Georgenkirche in Waren an der Müritz is one of the oldest buildings in the city and stands in the middle of the historic old town of Waren. It was built in the 14th century and rebuilt and redesigned several times over the centuries. The previous building, probably a wooden church, is mentioned for the first time in a document from 1237. The 14th century church was a three-aisled basilica, the nave with four bays, the vault supported by mighty pillars, a building of the brick Gothic. The mighty west tower was completed in 1414. This part of the city goes back to the founding of merchants and craftsmen. The Georgenkirche was "their" church, while the nearby Marienkirche was built as a castle church.
