The church of Lucka is located in the middle of the city center. It was dedicated to St. Pancras.
Pancras is one of the three ice saints. According to legend, he was the son of a wealthy Phrygian from the area of Synnada and was brought to his uncle in Rome as a fourteen-year-old orphan. There he was soon beheaded for his faith under the rule of Diocletian or the Emperor Valerian.
The church of St. Pancras in Lucka was first mentioned in documents around 1396. Then again in 1429.

The church was mentioned in documents as early as 1396 and again in 1429.
During the great fire in 1637 the church was almost completely destroyed. Lack of money forced the congregation to refrain from rebuilding the tower for the time being, which brought ridicule and malice.
In 1891 the new church tower was inaugurated. With a height of 56 meters it proudly looks out over the land. Even the city shows the church building as a sight to the visitors.
