history

The Andreas Church was first mentioned in a document in 1182. Construction of a new church began in 1210 and was completed around 1370. The Reformation was introduced in 1522, and the St. Andrew's Church has been Protestant ever since. In 1604 it merged with the neighboring parish of Moritzkirche and in 1973 with the parish of Michaeliskirche . The wooden model of the epitaph for Martin Luther has been in the Andreaskirche since 1727 .
