With its brick Gothic architecture and high steeple, St. Jakobi fits in perfectly with the other major churches in Lübeck. This steeple, however, also makes the church somewhat different: four large copper balls and a baroque bulge at the base give it a unique appearance. Presumably, St. Jakobi arose about 1276 from the reconstruction of an older Roman basilica. St. Jakobi remained undamaged during World War II, so the complete interior from six centuries ago gives an impression of Lübeck's churches in the olden days. The bronze font (1466) and the late Gothic Brömbse Altar (1502) are particularly spectacular. The two organs from 1466 and 1504 are very special treasures, and are still played today in concerts and during service. Check website.
