Hauptkirche St. Jacobi
At the end of last year I discovered the Hauptkirche St. Jacobi (St. James Church). It's one of the 5 original cathedrals in Hamburg. The church got its start in the year 1255. It's located in the city center and a tower that's almost 400 ft high. In the late-1600s the church received a pipe organ, which was built by renowned organ designer Arp Schnitger. And every Thursday, one of the organist from the church offers a 30 minute recital that's pretty awesome! Here are a few snaps from a recent visit.
