Sankt Katharina
Sankt Katharina stands in Landsberg am Lech, among historic buildings, colourful houses and winding alleys near the Lech. Its simple exterior suits a city shaped by medieval and baroque architecture. Bayertor, the historic town hall and Mutterturm belong to the same urban landscape. Inside, religious services share space with concerts and community gatherings.
Music gives the church a strong connection to Landsberg’s cultural life. A performance of Reinhard Keiser’s Markuspassion presented the original 1712 version with the Yuriko choir, soloists and a small orchestra. Keiser lived from 1674 to 1739 and influenced Johann Sebastian Bach, who performed and revised the work. Lukas Klöck led the performance, bringing music history into a local setting. Sankt Katharina therefore connects worship, community life and musical tradition beneath one roof.
