    The Marienkirche is Rostock's Evangelical Lutheran main church and a major work of North German brick Gothic. In 1232, an early Gothic predecessor church was mentioned for the first time; the construction of today's three-aisled basilica began around 1290 and was completed around the mid-15th century. The tower is now 86.32 meters high.

      There are two organs in the church. The large organ, behind a baroque facade, houses 5700 pipes in 83 stops across four manuals and pedal.

        Astronomical clock from 1472 by Hans Düringer.

        Restored and adapted to the then-new worldview in 1643. The fourth calendrical clock was installed between 1885 and 2017.
        A procession of the Apostles takes place on the clock daily at 12:00 noon and 24:00. A working historical clock with a medieval movement. Largely original, it is wound by hand daily. The lower part of the calendrical clock displays information about the day and year, while the upper part features a clock face showing the time, zodiac signs, sun position, and moon phase. The upper frame depicts Jesus and the Apostles.
