With the Sauer organ, the Veronika Chapel, the stained glass windows and the magnificent colorful interior design, the church is an absolute must here in Saalfeld.

The church was a template for several churches in the district, which have tried to copy the design - unfortunately often with little success. If you have time, you should look at the inside of the church.
