The church of St. Michaelis is the most famous church in Hamburg and is considered the most important baroque church in northern Germany. The current building is a reconstruction of 1912, after the church was burnt down in 1906.
The Second Temple in Hamburg is an Ashkenazi synagogue built in 1842-44 by architects Klees-Wülbern and Johann Heinrich. In use until 1931, this brick synagogue is now abandoned.
The St. Nicholas Church is the ruin of an old Lutheran church. It is now a memorial dedicated to "the victims of war and tyranny between 1933 and 1945". The building was built from 1195 to 1874, a long process due mainly to the height of the spire.
The St. Peter's Church is the oldest parish church in Hamburg. It is named after the Apostle Peter.
