The Roman Catholic Church of All Saints in Ebenhausen , Lower Franconia , a district of Oerlenbach in the Bavarian district of Bad Kissingen , is one of the architectural monuments in Oerlenbach and is registered in the Bavarian Monument List under number D-6-72-140-12 .
history
The first church in Ebenhausen was built in the 14th century. A stone church tower was added to this in 1565 ; in 1595 it was enlarged and renovated.
After the church, which had become dilapidated in the 19th century, was torn down, today's All Saints Church was built between 1820 and 1823 based on a design by Bernhard Morell .
In 2007 the outside of the church was renovated and given a gray color instead of the previous yellow.
description
The church is a hall with a pronounced trough-shaped ceiling and a small semicircular choir with a dome. The church hall has three window axes , with pillars separating the windows inside and outside . The low church tower with arched sound windows and a peculiar roof stands on the north-west side of the church.
Furnishing
The rococo- style high altar with side passages next to the tabernacle comes from the Augustinian Church in Würzburg, which was abandoned in 1824 and later demolished . Along with the high altar, there was also the right side altar of the St. Vitus Church in Langendorf in the Augustinian Church in Würzburg .
In 1903, according to tradition, the pastor of Ebenhauser commissioned the sculptor Valentin Weidner with the production of a pelican for the high altar for a fee of 300 marks . Although elements of neo-Romanesque and neo-Gothic were not particularly valued by art historians at the beginning of the 20th century , the pelican was mentioned in detail when the art monuments in the Kingdom of Bavaria were recorded in 1914. The five-part organ case from 1723 was also located in the Würzburg Augustinian Church.
The pulpit with reliefs of the four evangelists was created around 1780, the side altars around 1820. The altarpieces under canopies depict Saint Sebastian (right) and Our Lady (left).
Bells
Three old bells hang in the church tower, creating an unusual harmony.
