It protrudes far beyond the other buildings and is clearly visible from a distance: the Protestant Church of St. Jacobi in the Harz town of Elbingerode.
The St. Jacobi Church was built in the neo-Gothic style by the royal Hanoverian master builder Hase. It fell victim to the devastating city fire of 1858, but was rebuilt.

It consists of a hall-like, three-aisled church interior with a transept and a chancel to the east. The church tower, whose height is an impressive 43 meters, has housed three cast steel bells since 1865. The lavish structure can accommodate around 880 people with full seating.

The heated winter church has been located under the organ gallery since the 1950s. It offers space for 120 people and is separated by windows and doors.

The St. Jacobi Church is open from April 15 to October 15 and invites you to visit, reflect and meet.
