The church tower of the Marienkirche extends visibly from the entrance to Ueckermünde. The Sankt Marien Church has stood here since 1766. Part of the council stalls have been preserved from a predecessor building, which dates from 1593. Coat of arms and house brands of the council members give us their tasks today. Also worth seeing in the church are the fully painted wooden ceiling and the three beautiful chandeliers. Several large oil paintings show personalities such as the reformers Luther and Calvin as well as some Ueckermünder pastors. Like the paintings, the baptismal font also dates from the 17th century. The altar was renovated in 1961.

In the past few years, many work on the church building that are important for the permanent preservation of this sacred building could be carried out. The church tower was rebuilt in 1866 and renovated in the nineties. There are five bells in it, which could be cast again thanks to a unique fundraiser, since they were unfortunately defective. The roof was completely renewed. Inside, the valuable painted wooden ceiling could initially be secured and a few years later restored with great effort. In 2013 the facade was extensively renovated. The church now shines back into ocher and white, the original color version of 1766.

Take a look at the Marienkirche, visit a service or one of the many concerts that take place here, especially in summer.
