The church of St. Peter is mentioned for the first time in 1296. With the Reformation in the 16th century, the church became Protestant.
Probably begun as a hall church church was completed as a three-aisled Gothic brick basilica with west tower and five-sided apse. From an art historical point of view, the St. Peter's Church has a special position, since together with the younger Lüneburg St. Nicholas' Church it is the only basilica in the Gothic brick hall churches.

The impression of brightness is conveyed to this day by the "Obergaden" modeled on Lübeck, the additional windows in the upper area of the main nave, and this light atmosphere is enhanced by the paintings based on the historical models.
The tower reaches a height of 75 m with the tower cross and is the landmark of the city that can be seen from afar.

Evangelical Parish Church of St. Petri. The three-aisled vaulted brick basilica with a western tower in front was built towards the end of the 13th century. The completion of the building is expected to be around 1320. The original tower was destroyed by lightning in 1853. The subsequent restoration was carried out according to plans by the Hamburg-based architect J. Wimmel. The tower of the St. Petri Church is the landmark of the Hanseatic city of Buxtehude.
