Despite its size, the small church by the highly frequented Ratzeburger Allee is remarkable. Built in 1646, the chapel was a substitute for its predecessor, which had been torn down when the town bastions were enlarged in 1629. As a building, St. George's chapel is unique in Lübeck since it has a Greek cross as ground-plan instead of the traditional patterns of church architecture. The separate wooden belfry, absolutely unusual in Northern Germany, is also an interesting feature. Parts of the furniture date from the 15th and 16th century. Lutheran service is celebrated each Sunday at 10:50a.
