St. Jacobi Kirche (St. James's Church)
St. Jacobi Kirche (St. James's Church) Review
This 15th-century church was almost completely destroyed during World War II. Only the interiors survived, and reconstruction was completed in 1963. The interior is not to be missed—it houses such treasures as a massive baroque organ and three Gothic altars from the 15th and 16th centuries.
