Rostock, Germany
Saint Mary's Church stands in the centre of Rostock, a Hanseatic city on Germany's Baltic coast, near the New Market and the Town Hall, and a small admission is charged for visitors, with an extra fee for the tower. It is the largest church in Rostock and famous for its astronomical clock. Walking tours of Rostock combine the church with the Town Hall, the Kropeliner Tor gate, the university and the old harbour.
Rostock, Germany
Saint Peter's Church, the Petrikirche, stands on a hill in the eastern part of Rostock's old town, near the old market square, the Alter Markt, and the river Warnow, and entry to the church is free, while the tower viewing platform, reached by a lift or stairs, is ticketed. The tower gives a panoramic view over Rostock, the harbour and, on clear days, the Baltic Sea at Warnemünde.
