Why go
St. Michael's Church, known in Hamburg as the Michel, is the Lutheran main church Hauptkirche St. Michaelis. The parish describes it as a Baroque church whose tower, 132 metres tall with a copper dome, is part of the city skyline, and presents the church, the crypt, where more than 2,000 people are buried, and the tower's open observation deck as the parts of a visit. Its visitor page says the church and crypt cannot be visited during church services or events, and points to a calendar of visiting times; tickets for the tower and the crypt are sold at the St. Michaelis Visitor Center or online. It is a working parish church: the parish's services page lists services every day and says they are generally held in German.
