Then they tore off the old church and continued the construction from 1440 to the east. First without a tower, it was completed in 1480, damaged in the city fire of 1485 and rebuilt until 1490.
In 1497, Peter Hansen cast the bronze baptismal font in Rote Straße. There were 422 inhabited plots of which 143 in St. Nicholas. Already in 1526 Gerhard Slewardt gave the first Lutheran sermon in Flensburg here.
According to the Reformation understanding of a church in 1570, the lawyer Blasius Eckenberger donated the pulpit carved by the Lübeck-based Hinrich Matthes, which received a staircase around 1600 probably built by Heinrich Ringeringk.
In 1897 the Schalldeckel was added, a work of the museum's founder Heinrich Sauermann. Now the tower helmet was built in neo-gothic style after plans of the architect Johannes Otzen from Berlin. The tower is now about 90 meters high.
In 1909 he received at 60 meters height, a glockenspiel, the 17 bells ring every day at 9, 12, 15, 18 and 21 clock. St. Nikolai is the largest church in the city with dimensions of 52 x 21 m, a ridge height of 40 m and a 90 m high tower.
In 1898 the "Kattsund" houses south and east of the church and two houses north of the then smaller Südermarkt were demolished. From the construction situation at that time, one can get an approximate picture of the walk around the church. If one goes up from the entrance of the church to the Nikolaikirchhof, one passes the organist's house built on the tower, on the opposite side of the tower the building of the former To reach St. Nikolai operated school.

Flensburg Harbor Point
Highlight • Viewpoint
The harbour extends in the west from the tip of the harbour to the Baltic Sea resort. On the east bank, its dimensions were formerly counted up to Kielseng. Since the withdrawal of the Bundeswehr, Sonwik and the adjacent boat harbour of the Mürwik Naval School are sometimes also mentioned in this context. In addition, the buildings of the Flensburg city centre, the buildings of Jürgensby, and the Volkspark are located around the harbour, forming Flensburg's distinctive skyline. Next to the Flensburger Hafen, there is a sailing harbour at Fahrensodde on the east bank, which does not belong to the aforementioned harbour.
At the tip of the harbour, Flensburg's Mühlenstrom flows into the Förde. On Angelburger Straße, where the tip of the harbour was located in the Middle Ages before the Förde silted up, became muddy and was filled in, the Royal Water Mill stood until the beginning of the 20th century.
The current tip of the harbour is protected from surrounding traffic noise by the embankments of the harbour railway. Until the 1980s, the so-called Kanalschuppen (canal shed) stood there. Today, the tip of the harbour is undeveloped and consists of a large open space that serves as a venue for various events. In summer, when the area is unoccupied, young people often play frisbee or Viking chess there.
