Johanniskirche

TIME : 2016/2/18 19:42:10

Zittau's grand Church of St John has medieval roots, but the current version was designed by celebrated Prussian architect Karl Friedrich Schinkel who added the wooden coffered ceiling, the neo-Gothic north tower and the baptismal font. It was consecrated in 1837. The south tower can be climbed for sweeping views of the mountains.
