Discover St. Jacobi by candlelight

In November, we invite you to a spiritual church tour. As the church year goes from darkness into light, after passing through Eternity Sunday, and before the first Sunday of Advent, we go from the west portal into the darkened church, gradually illuminating it with candles, listen to texts that inspire reflection and stillness, and discover what can happen in Advent. The darkness surrendering to the warmth of candlelight throughout the church and its artistic treasures is a special experience. The event is hosted by church leaders of St. Jacobi and pastor Lisa Tsang, followed by a small snack.

Organ tour

Every Thursday at 12 noon.

Exhibitions

The southern nave features exhibitions of modern art several times a year. It is fascinating to see how the late-Gothic space works with the modern art and increases its impact.
