Altars
The altars from the Church of St. Cäcilia were installed in the new building of the Christ Church, consecrated in 1990. The winged altar , which was created around 1484, was restored from 1968–71. It was designed as a double convertible altar. On the holiday side are inscriptions designated statuettes under canopies of tracery . In the middle of the shrine is the coronation of Mary , on the left side are Saints Urban , Elisabeth , Martin and Cäcilia , on the right side are Saints Peter , Paul , Sebastian and Fabianus . On the left side wing are Saints Catherine , Dorothea , Bonifatius , John the Baptist and Barbara , on the right Ursula , Andreas , Nikolaus , Jakobus the Elder and Margaretha . The Sunday page shows paintings of the Fourteen Holy Helpers and Saints Philip , James , Laurentius , Wolfgang , John the Baptist and Bartholomew . The weekday page shows the birth of Christ and the adoration of the kings . The shrine of the altar has a relief of a courtly clad holy clan under a canopy with tendrils, which was created at the beginning of the 16th century.
organ
The original organ with 18 registers , divided into two manuals and a pedal , which Johann Christoph Thielemann had built in 1717 , was badly damaged in 1973 when the building collapsed partly due to the dilapidation. After the church was rebuilt, a positive with 4 registers was purchased from Förster & Nicolaus Orgelbau .
graveyard
In the church cemetery there is a tombstone with a portrait of a young woman from 1752, the tombstone of a clergyman from 1521, a column over the floods from 1558 and a bell from 1575, which Eckart made cakes.
