Church in Großhartmannsdorf

The church in Großhartmannsdorf is a baroque church building in Großhartmannsdorf in the district of Central Saxony in the Free State of Saxony . The parish of Großhartmannsdorf belongs to the Evangelical Lutheran Church of Saxony .

history

A smaller medieval church previously stood on the site of today's sacred building. In 1730 Carl Adolph von Carlowitz bought the Großhartmannsdorf manor and thus took over the patronage of the church and organ. He suggested the construction of a larger church and a new organ. The new church was built around the old one so that the services could take place in the usual place during the construction period.

A small coat of arms of the patron saint is also attached to the organ, as Carl Adolph von Carlowitz concluded the contract with Gottfried Silbermann for a new building and paid him an advance of 100 thalers. The organ, consecrated in 1741, is one of the works of Silbermann that has largely been preserved in its original state.

Building description

The village church Großhartmannsdorf was built in 1737/38 as a baroque hall church. It is a plastered quarry stone building with a hipped roof and basket arched windows . The west tower has a baroque hood and a lantern and ends in a weather vane.

In front of the altar steps there is a crypt as the burial place for the von Carlowitz family.

Furnishing

The late Gothic winged altar of the previous church, which was built before 1520, is now in the parish church of Dörnthal .

The pulpit stood free in the middle of the sanctuary until 1960, but was moved to the right as part of renovations. The baptismal font , which previously stood in the middle of the room between the pulpit and the altar, was moved to the left at the same time.

The patron saint Carl Adolph von Carlowitz had his own box in the church, a “ stately gallery ” on which his family coat of arms is attached.

organ

history

The church organ was built 1740/1741 by Gottfried Silbermann and was in the newly built church on December 3, 1741 consecrated . The building was sponsored by the church patron Carl Adolph von Carlowitz, whose coat of arms is preserved in the coronation of the case. The carving probably goes back to Johann Friedrich Lücke. Christian Polycarp Butzäus was responsible for the color of the case. Adam Gottfried Oehme completely renewed the work. Repairs are documented for 1835 and the second half of the century as well as for the first half of the 20th century. A fundamental renovation was carried out in 1952 by the Hermann Eule company , Bautzen . This was followed by further work by the same company, the last time in 1990. The organ has been preserved almost in its original condition without any major changes.

Registration suggestions by Gottfried Silbermann, which were handed down in a copy of the schoolmaster and organist JG Schenke from 1780, are informative.
