The look-out platform in the tower of the over 100 year old St. Pauls Church is the only viewing location in Bremerhaven, which can only be accessed while on a guided tour. During the climb the tower guides tell interesting things about the history of the church and its location in Bremerhaven's city area "Lehe". The guided tour also gives you the opportunity to see the organ, the bells and the clockwork of the tower clock up close.
From the tower look-out gallery you will be able to see Bremerhaven and Lehe from a completely different perspective. The automobile transhipment harbor and the container terminal seem to be within reach and when looking at the old houses dating back to the Wilhelminian era located around the church you can see the green trees growing in the beautiful courtyards.
Visit to the church tower:
- Saturday at 10.00 am and 11.00 am as well as upon request
- Meeting point church café (main entrance on the Hafenstraße)
Price:
- If you liked the guided tower tour, the congregation would appreciate a small donation, which is used for the maintanence of the tower.
