St. John's Church, Lauf an der Pegnitz
Highlight • Religious Site
The Laufer sculptor Balthasar Götz created the altar with eight interchangeable images in the second half of the 17th century. The organ is a work by Hoffmann Orgelbau from 1990 with 24 registers on two manuals and pedal using a baroque main work prospectus from 1667 by Christoph Rappold and a Rückpositiv prospectus from 1700 by Johann Adam Brandenstein.[1]
On the church tower is the two-story apartment of the town tower keeper, who worked from there as a fire watchman and town musician with his journeymen until 1931. There is another room above the apartment, the use of which is not known.
In addition to Sunday services, the church also hosts weddings, prayer services and concerts. Special regular events include, on the one hand, the Lenten sermons during Lent and, on the other hand, organ music during market time in the summer.
