Reutlingen St.Marys church

I finally got to the hotel around 11 so dropped my bags and went straight out for a beer. I've been looking forward to my pint of Hefeweisen.
On the way to the bar I had to pass St Mary's church.

St. Mary's Church (German: Marienkirche) It was built from 1247-1343 and is one of the most distinct Gothic buildings in Swabia.

Between the 1520s and 1540s the church was a center of the Swabian reformer Matthäus Alber, who spread the teachings of Martin Luther to Reutlingen and surrounding areas. The church was heavily damaged during a fire in 1726. From 1893-1901 it was rebuilt in Neo-Gothic style.

The church has been a National Cultural Landmark since 1988.

If I'm slow to comment on your wonderful blips its because the wifi is next to useless here, I've resorted to 3G to upload this shot.
