St. Nikolai Church Röbel

Its architecture stands out from afar.

The early Gothic Nikolaikirche in Röbel, the construction of which probably began around 1250, is unique in its closed form in northern Germany.

The citizens of the "New Town in Röbel" (1261) built their representative church in a structural copy of the Marienkirche in the newly created center, certainly as a structural unit with the large assembly/market place and the town hall.
Consecration of the main altar by Bishop Heinrich of Havelberg around 1275, to whose diocese the town of Röbel belonged since 1252. All in all, the expansion and renovation of St. Nicolai always took place 20-40 years after the Marienkirche, but in all things a little more representative, as corresponded to the self-image of the Neustadt citizens. This also applies to the massive tower, which was built during the robber baron wars in the 15th century, not least as a defense and watchtower.
The "Holy Spirit Church" of the German settlement, which had been used until then, became less and less important and was finally relocated to Predigerstraße after 1389.
