The Paul Gerhardt church in Lübben is a late Gothic, three-aisled hall-type church in the town centre. The present structure stands on the site of the previous building, having been rebuilt after the town fire of 1494. The former church of St. Nikolai was renamed in 1931 after the well-known Protestant hymn writer Paul Gerhardt, an archdeacon in Lübben who was buried in the church at an unknown location.

The church’s treasures include the altar, chancel and baptismal font made of limestone dating back to 1610 and rich interior decorations including hymn verses and stained glass windows by famous contemporaries of Paul Gerhardt. The portal of the church shows reliefs of important churchmen. In front of the church there is a larger-than-life monument created by Friedrich Pfannschmidt to the hymnodist himself, who is omnipresent in Lübben.

The church is taking part in the “Open Church” initiative and is open from Easter to Thanksgiving, Monday to Friday from 10 a.m. to 12 p.m. and 2 p.m. to 5 p.m., Saturday 2 p.m. to 5 p.m., Sunday after the service until 12 p.m., otherwise open by appointment at the parish office. A guided tour of the church is also possible by appointment. The tour can also be combined with a guided tour of the Paul Gerhardt Centre. You should allow about 45 minutes for this.
