St. Petri Kirche is a Lutheran church located in the city of Geesthacht, an hour's drive from Hamburg. The church is the largest in the city, and the recognizable spire is visible from across the Elbe. Inspired by the city's Hanseatic heritage, the church features a unique architecture that draws from the city's nautical past and is believed to be shaped like a fish.

The church is a popular summer venue for classical concerts thanks to its exceptional acoustics.
