Bartholomäuskirche with memorial

The Bartholomäuskirche Lütgendortmund is a listed church building, Theresenstraße 1, in Lütgendortmund , a district of Dortmund in North Rhine-Westphalia .

History and architecture

The new St. Bartholomew Church, which was built on the foundations of the old Bartholomew Church and was officially inaugurated on September 19, 1834, belongs to the Protestant community of Lütgendortmund, whose history dates back to 1308, when a parish in Lütgendortmund is mentioned for the first time. The Bartholomäus fair is said to go back to the year 1360. As a result, the church of that time, which burned down during the Dortmund feud in 1388, was consecrated that year . 200 years later (1585), Spanish troops burned down the spire of the church, which has now been rebuilt. The Reformation began in Lütgendortmund in 1599by chaplain Hermann Faber (Schmitt). The Bartholomäus Church was awarded to the Protestant community in 1664 (the oldest entries in the church records of the Protestant community go back to 1661.)

Due to tight budgets - the new building cost 9,806 thalers - when the ailing previous building was demolished (1829, also the year the foundation stone was laid), the bell tower remained detached from the newly built nave. Despite the expert judgment (danger of collapse), the people of Lütgendortmund hesitated to demolish the tower until 1855 and even had to move the bells to the cemetery surrounding the nave. In 1856 the new tower was completed for 8,500 thalers including a tower clock for 400 thalers. The 1916-1917 melted bells were replaced in 1925 by new ones.

In the last days of the war in 1945 the nave was badly destroyed and was rebuilt and rebuilt until 1951. In 1976 the church received a new organ and in 1994 new windows based on designs by the artist Ute Rakob (Bünden (Vienna)).

organ

Nothing from the old inventory has been taken over into the new building from 1834 except for the completely cleaned organ . However, according to the organ builder consulted, this was no longer worth anything and was therefore replaced by a new instrument (Buchholz, 20 II / P) in 1837. In 1907 the company Orgelbau Friedrich Weigle built a three-manual organ with 36 registers , including 5 high pressure registers , which was destroyed in the war.

For the reconstruction (1951) after the Second World War, the church got a smaller instrument from Paul Faust (23 II / P), which was replaced in 1976 by the present organ from the Alexander Schuke Potsdam Orgelbau company (then VEB Potsdamer Schuke-Orgelbau). This has 40 registers on 3 manuals and Pedal , with abrasive loading , mechanical play and electrical register contracture .
