Majestic St. Michael’s Church

Blog 9 by Shin Shin Lung

Europe is famous for its beautiful churches and St. Michael’s Church ( www.st-michaelis.de ) is no exception. Known affectionately as “Michel” by locals, it is Hamburg’s largest church with a 132m bell tower.  It offers a stunning view over the city.

Once you step inside, you will be amazed by the beauty of the 20m high altar.

The Michel has 5 different organs and can house 2,500 people.

My favourite time to visit the Michel is on Christmas Eve where I can sing along to lovely Christmas carols. I fully recommend it – it is not to be missed if you are here for a German Christmas! 🙂
