Neuwerk Church
Neuwerkkirche
A 12th-century Romanesque church of a Cistercian convent, with well-preserved medieval murals in a quiet setting.
Neuwerk Church once belonged to a Cistercian nunnery founded in 1186. It is the best-preserved Romanesque church in Goslar, with two octagonal towers and an elegant semicircular apse. Its 13th-century painted murals and carved capitals are especially valuable. The church sits in a small garden in the north of the old town, and visitors are few, so it is good for a quiet visit. Admission is free (donations welcome), opening hours are limited, and in winter it may only open for services. It is about an 8-minute walk from the Market Square.
