    An architecturally very pretty and beautifully decorated church both inside and out

    A Laurentius Church was first mentioned in documents in Elsterberg in 1225.

    The church building was destroyed several times by fire. The current church building was completely rebuilt in neo-Romanesque and neo-Gothic styles after the last major city fire in 1840. The impressive Jehmlich organ and the altarpiece by an unknown master are worth seeing. Organ and church concerts with well-known national and international musicians take place at regular intervals.

    A Laurentius Church was first mentioned in documents in Elsterberg in 1225. The church is named after the Roman deacon and martyr Laurentius, who lived in the 3rd century. The church building was destroyed several times by fire. The current church building was completely rebuilt after the last major city fire in 1840 according to plans by the Elsterberg master builder Götz and the Plauen architect Roßbach. Its enormous internal height of 19 m is particularly impressive.
