Tips

An active Catholic parish gathers here in Lutherstadt Wittenberg. "Great Maria" is the name of the parish church of St. Marien on the church square, which is of course Protestant. It was only Prussian tolerance that allowed Catholics a good 200 years ago.

The Catholic parish church of St. Mary is located on Bürgermeisterstrasse, where there is also an information board about the history of the church. A very beautiful building 👌

A church steeped in history.
It is a testament to Protestant-Prussian tolerance - the Catholic faith was tolerated.
As a reminder: the Catholic Church did not make things easy for itself with the Protestants.
