This is where Martin Luther went to school in Mansfeld.

St. George's Church was built between 1497 and 1518. It's a very beautiful, imposing church; next to it is the former school that Martin Luther attended. Unfortunately, the church was still closed, and I arrived much too early.

In and around the so-called Hafenbahr there are impressive graffiti works which have been impressively brought to the wall

Most of the time you don't see anything left from deserted areas, there are still remains here, with the mighty tree and the dilapidated church, mystical.
