Eisenach - St George Church

In the Eisenach Markt is the parish church of St George, a hall-church with a richly furnished interior (tombs of Landgraves of Thuringia). Luther preached in this church on May 2, 1521, in spite of the fact that he had been outlawed by the imperial authorities. Johann Sebastian Bach was baptized here on March 23, 1685; there are frequent performances of his works in the church.
