Mariakirken (St. Mary’s Church)
Mariakirken is one of the oldest buildings in Bergen and is estimated to have been built in the period between 1140 and 1250. The church is located just behind Bryggen and was used by the Germans during the Hanseatic era. That is why it is often called the German Church by the locals.
