ABOUT THE CHURCH:
"The Evangelical Lutheran parish, university and Deanery Church of St. Mark, also known as St. Mark's Church is the second Lutheran church in Munich. It was built in 1873-1876, designed by Rudolf Hilary. The present building is virtually a new building, designed by Gustav Gsaenger taking into existing masonry structures that survived the Second World War. It is now the seat of the Dean of Munich-center and dean of the city of Munich, which are currently united in one person. St. Mark was the only Protestant church of historicism in Munich, which largely corresponded to the demands of the Eisenach regulator."
