One of the 5 main Hamburg churches. Located on the way from the main train station to the Kontorhaus District and Speicherstadt. Interesting fact that it's located on the place of an old small chapel on the Way of St James. During re-construction, the spire was re-built to a modern one - and it looks too moderns in comparison to the whole look of the church. Spire of the church is visible from the streets around.

We had the great fortune to visit on a Thursday afternoon in time to hear the weekly 30 minute concert. What a pleasure to hear Reger and Bach on the famous Arp Schnitger Organ. This seems to be a year-round event. There is also an organ demonstration (Orgelführung) on Thursdays at Noon. This summer there will be additional concerts on Tuesday evenings at 8pm. (10 euro)
