    The Evangelical Lutheran Ludgeri Church stands in the centre of the market square in the East Frisian town of Norden in the Aurich district. The Romanesque-Gothic building was constructed in several phases from the 13th century to the middle of the 15th century.

    At around 80 metres long, the Ludgeri Church is the largest surviving medieval religious building in East Frisia. The building, which is highly fragmented on the outside, consists of three sections that also vary in height, and is characterized above all by the Gothic choir, completed around 1455. It clearly towers over the Gothic transept and the Romanesque nave. The choir area and its ambulatory are the only three-aisled religious building in East Frisia in the style of Gothic cathedral architecture. The Romanesque bell tower, which stands free to the south of the church, is separated from the church by a street.

    The Ludgeri Church is particularly richly furnished. Particularly significant are the altarpiece, the baroque pulpit, the Gothic choir stalls, the baptismal font, the epitaph of the Unico Manninga and, above all, the organ by Arp Schnitger, a work of art of international standing both historically and in terms of sound. Pre-Reformation art from the Middle Ages is only present in small remnants due to the iconoclasm at the time of the Reformation, and can only be seen in the transept and the choir.
