The village church Altranft is a church building in Bad Freienwalde (Oder) in the district of Altranft in Brandenburg from the middle of the 18th century. It is located in the historical center of the village. The church, surrounded by old maple trees, is part of the open-air museum in Altranft and is a listed building . The parish belongs to the district of Bad Freienwalde.
history
Two previous buildings stood on the site of today's church. Nothing is known about the first church; it was replaced in 1607 by a new building made of bricks and field stones. After this church became dilapidated, the congregation built a new church building, which was consecrated in 1752. The church tower was only added in 1795. In the years 1820 and 1826 the church was then rebuilt again.
The tower had to be renewed in 1901. The late baroque church therefore received a new massive neo-baroque church tower as a gift from Countess Veronika von Hacke (manor Altranft), with which the building unfolds a far-reaching view over the village. The construction work was carried out by the construction company Otto Seidemann from Freienwalde . There were other changes in 1906, when the church roof on the organ side was extended. In 1947 the church was converted into a winter church. The last renovation was completed in 2004.
architecture
The church is a hall building with a west tower, the facade is plastered off. The tower was built in the neo-baroque style. The wooden door of the tower dates from the construction time of 1752. It is protected by a roofed extension.
Furnishing
The wooden pulpit altar was made in 1752. A halo above the sound cover of the pulpit symbolizes the eye of God .
The ceiling of the church is decorated with a painting made in 1906 for the Ascension of Christ .
The baptism was created in the 19th century in the neo-Gothic style. The silver baptismal font, made in 1826 by the Hofauer patent factory, shows the coat of arms of the von Hacke family .
The organ dates from 1861. The manufacturer was the organ builder Friedrich Kienscherf from Eberswalde.
A wooden patron's box as a gallery was installed on the north side of the church in 1826 and painted in color. The western corner is indented inwards.
The chandelier and the wall sconces date from 1893 and are made of brass. The candlestick on the ceiling has eight arms and is decorated with grape leaves. Five one-armed and two double sconces, also decorated with grape leaves, are in the church.
Originally the church had a two-part bronze bell, the oldest bell of which was cast in 1679, the middle one in 1792. Both had to be delivered in 1917 to be melted down for war purposes. A third bell dates from 1911 and was cast by the Heinrich Ulbrich company in Apolda .
