The Black Church of the Dominicans
What was originally a Dominican monastery and church is now a public space known in Wismar. It is known by that name, for 2 reasons, not knowing for sure what is real. It is said that before the restoration, It had a blackened brick lot, and the place looked like a dark mass. Another version speaks of the black habit of the Dominicans and even its name "Domini Canes" The Dogs of the Lord. Anyway, at first, it was a place of worship, and after the Reformation, the monastery became a orphanage, though the church remained sacred. The old hospital and orphanage is now a home for old people, while the former residential school now has the integrated comprehensive school "Johann Wolfgang von Goethe." THE church choir is still used as an auditorium and gym.
