One of the city's major landmarks, the Lutheran church of St. Michealis was originally built in the early 17th century. Destroyed by lightening in 1661, it was replaced by a baroque building in 1786. In 1906 the church was again destroyed by fire but was immediately rebuilt true to the original. In later years however, it sustained irreparable damage in the two world wars. The tower offers marvellous views of the city and still plays host to a 300-year-old tradition, whereby a trumpet player plays a hymn facing north, then south, then east and west (10am & 9pm; midday Sun).
